I like tim, but wish he would speak faster.

...So far this year everyone that's presented on stage has been really good. ...

In my opinion, Kevin Lynch who presented the Apple Watch was a huge miss. He was both very likable and sympathetic, but he completely lacked the very 'Fashion'-flavor Apple are trying so hard to inject.

A tailored shirt (or one in the right size), a new pair of glasses and a decent hairdresser could have done wonders.

And yes. In the world of fashion it matters.

I thought the first clip was the best. They practically have a memorial to Steve with his office left as is. I hope it stays that way for decades.

I think it's kind of sad, and I don't think Jobs would have liked that. It's the antithesis of what he stood for.

I've always liked Tim Cook, and I felt he was unfairly treated along with AAPL for a couple of years. I thought it was a good interview …

Shares: I have never held one, not in any company.

Personalities: when I glance at the executive profiles, I recognise some names and faces, but – almost without exception – I have never needed to take an interest in the roles, or in the backgrounds or personalities of people filling those roles. My foci were, still are, Mac hardware, firmware and software.

Steve Jobs was exceptional.

Then, I heard much noise about Jony Ive. Changes to iOS never affected me, and I always assumed that nine-ninety percent of that noise about Ive was, essentially, the online habit of the masses to single out a person as supposedly solely responsible for good or bad. For anyone who would like to continue an Ive/design discussion: https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/1717240/

My interest in some people's roles and personalities grew after I began testing Yosemite. Without focusing on Yosemite, the few interview clips that I saw in recent months were not enough to form an opinion about any person. So the Charlie Rose interview was welcome …

… I was reassured by what Cook spoke about, and by his delivery of those words.

up until … I do not believe all those celebrities were phished. … dismissing it as "phishing" …

He should have said "we used to make the best products".

Too bad there's no demand on Apple products, only 4 million orders in 1 day. /s

The best?

Beats.

Is the entire interview available anywhere online?

PS: Recently, Tim's stage and TV performances have improved dramatically. His stiffness is gone. His tempo is up. And his energy, passion, humor and even a bit of warmth is shining through. Great stuff, Tim!

Apple just needs to hire Donald Trump as the Apple Spokesperson.
He can promote a turd like it's gold that everyone must have.

Donald: "Tim... you're fired!"

Don't want to be rude here but based on your off-topic rant about display resolutions either you haven't seen the Cook interview or you missed his point completely...

You are correct I have not seen the interview and you're right to call me out. I was going off of the statement on the front page and should have seen the interview before going off of what I thought was in context.
