Dude -- no offense but I OWE Steve Jobs a debt of gratitude because his Mac taught me how to monetize my talent and take myself to heights I could never have imagined without a Mac.
Steve Jobs and Tim Cook are two very different people. I'm confident when I say that BOTH have strengths in some areas and failures in others. That true of EVERYBODY ON EARTH.
I will say that respectfully Tim Cook has never ever presented himself in ANY interview as "the" person and only person behind any of the products. That rests on the heads of those who were all hired by Jobs.
"I won't even talk about Apple Music or the new notebook..." What does that mean? Again "Cooks" debacle?? Dude or dudette apparently you really did not live during Steve Jobs reign at Apple. But I'm not going to give you a history lesson but Apple has had misfires throughout its history so chill. Did somebody say Newton? MobileMe? Jobs cutting the price of the iPhone and REFUNDING people like me for "overcharging". etc etc etc.
You gotta be able to admit that nobody is infallible - not even Jobs who I cite as a mentor. But even I can easily admit that I too am not a jack of all trades and admit that I'm not good at things outside the s one of my knowledge. So? Tim Cook was hand selected by Jobs. That's the bottom line.
Jobs made mistakes, even as he changed the world.
Perhaps one of those was mistakes was choosing Cook as CEO. He's done okay as an interim CEO, and let's face it, anyone following Jobs was not going to live up to him. But it's clear that Cook's time is over.
We need a CEO who can make the hard decisions and can say No. Tim Cook only knows how to say Yes.
