Sorry but I see something completely different. I come into Apple when it was being run by a fizzy water merchant. The company was unfocused and losing marketshare despite having a superior vision. The company had competing divisions which used company politics to play executives off each other for their own advantage. I saw a company heading down the tubes. It got no better until Jobs came back. I don't care if Jobs is rude and abrupt - as I know he is. I don't care if he is eccentric - as I know he is. The company has focus, direction, and is moving forward. Stock that I paid between $13 and $22 for split and is now closing in on $100 a share. The product is reinvigorated and we have a code base on which to grow for quite some time. Just because you don't like his choices doesn't make him wrong or you right.
Many of us complain about the lack of distinction in the iMac models but few are going to say it didn't galvanize the market.
When you look at Jobs' flops vs his successes, the flops are hard to notice. Without Jobs, Apple starts looking like any other computer company. -- Clark Martin Redwood City, CA, USA Macintosh / Internet Consulting "I'm a designated driver on the Information Super Highway" -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
