part of Apple's appeal seems to have come from Steve Jobs and the cool way

Windows Phone 8.
I would suggest that Apple's appeal can be summed up in the phrase
"obsessive attention to every detail combined with aesthetic taste".
Product announcements were no exception to that combination. "Cool" is
just the end result of that combination.

You can have obsessive attention to every detail *without* aesthetic
taste and possibly still get a capable product.
"Or you can have *no* obsessive attention to every detail and no aesthetic taste . . ."
My ears are burning.
