And done far less notable in that time. At least as someone outside looking in, it feels like Apple has really kinda stagnated under him. Say what you want about Jobs, he at least had vision. Cook feels like he's just pushing the status quo

  • You’re not wrong, but a big part of this is the maturity of the industry as a whole. The more a technology progresses, the harder it is to make significant leaps. There were many more “easy wins” back in the Jobs days as personal computers were a relatively new thing.

    Definitely fewer interesting products.

    Steve:

    • iMac, especially the first couple
    • iPod
    • PowerMac
    • iPhone
    • iPad

    Tim:

    • Apple Watch
    • Vision Pro

    ... and the idea for Watch may have started during Steve's time, too. And I'm probably forgetting some of the ones during Steve's time.

    I remember making fun of the iPad when it came out, like pretending it’s just a huge-ass phone. Who needs this?!

    I’ve used mine for hundreds of hours, now. It’s the best thing ever for power outages. It’s such a good art tablet. I love it.

    So he must be doing a good Jobs, that is to say Tim isn't cooked.

    update (i couldn't resist): If he is working, let Tim cook.

    No shit, Sherlock, Jobs has been dead for a while if you didn't notice.
