I'll write it again: "I don't idolize him, I just like the company's products."
Read it again and understand that I didn't care much for Steve. He was who he was and Apple was different under his guidance. I don't doubt Cook has/will do a great job at Apple, it's simply different now.
And I care about their products, and only that.
Remembering Steve on his birthday: "Details matter, its worth waiting to get it right."
Really Tim? So why the f did you rush iOS7? And Mavericks? And iTunes11?
I guess your comment will be true or false based on Apple iWatch vs Samsung watch sales.
Yes we're all missing out by not buying a Galaxy Gear. I mean a Gear 2. Sorry, I meant a Gear 10.1 with S-Pen. No, my mistake, the Gear 12-mini, that's the one for sure. Thank goodness I didn't wait for Apple.
Tim Cook Honors Steve Jobs' 59th Birthday

Please explain as I am finding it hard to understand what the sales numbers of smart watches has to do with weather or not Apple will ever release an actual TV.
Don't know... will you?I wonder if porn fans will feel the same 3 years after Hugh Hefner kicks the bucket?![]()
It's a shame that MR can't have something nice for those that cared about Steve Jobs and all that he did to keep Apple from not only dying back in 1997 but to become the most important tech company today (and the most profitable) without a bunch of people who can't seem to do anything with their time other than bash a wonderful leader and talented CEO (Tim Cook), the best tech company in the world (Apple) or a true visionary taken too quickly from this world (Steve Jobs)... a crying shame:
Rest in peace, Steve.
So young. It's tragic. Needless to say, he was an inspiration to many, an enemy to some, a villain to others.
You could quote him, disagree with him, glorify or vilify him -
But you can't ignore him. Because he changed things. He pushed the human race forward.
Where others saw crazy, we saw genius.
Because the one who was crazy enough to change the world, was the one who did.

Well, the waiting part has been working okay for Apple so far:"Life punishes those who delay."

Others are already shipping products. Why wait for products from Apple that are not even announced but merely rumored?
And yes, I don't think there's such a thing called an iWatch. The iWatch is just a rumor conjured up by the tech bloggers and repeated so often in their own echochambers that they themselves now believe it's real.
We don't know that Apple is "different" now, and you have certainly not specified anything that you think is "different" except that Steve is no longer there. Rereading your posts doesn't shed any further light on what you think is different.
For example, IOS 7 was a much more unstable OS for me than any other ones so far. More resprings, errors and resets than I can recall.
I felt a lot more excited when the iPhone 3 and 4 came out rather than the 5 and 5S.
These two reasons are my experience so far.
