When Steve Jobs left for his health issues, yes Cook took over. but... he didn't do everything the Jobs way. I heard he immediately made tons of changes at retail to cut costs and "streamline" the business. Other changes were being made elsewhere in the company. I believe many things had to get put back into order after Jobs came back. The company was made more "PC" and less Mac. something that had to get corrected by Jobs.
so... if Apple loses Cook... probably not a huge loss. and HP gets to get a very traditional PC business guy.
Remember, before Apple, Cook was a Compaq Resources VP and Reseller at another company. So...essentially Cook is the guy who killed off manufacturing for Apple in the USA and even the UK/Ireland.
