...Carl Icahn ...to feel important despite Tim Cook not giving a crap about anything he has to say!
Hold on now. Perhaps Icahn came in, hung around, made some noises, backed off at the right time and purely by accident, but Cook has gone a fair way towards meeting Icahn's demands ($90B in repurchases + enhanced dividends, instead of $150B in a repurchase that Icahn wanted). Not that I am suggesting that was necessarily the motivation for Apple, but it does seem like too much of a coincidence.
I am glad that Cook decided to increase the shareholder payout without taking on more debt (keeps the powder dry). The stock split -- despite the fact that, at one level, it's a cosmetic move -- was a terrific.
It would be exciting if there was a way for regular (i.e. not rich) people like me to enter a lottery draw to win an hour with Tim. He'd probably get a more interesting conversation too.

That's an excellent idea. Have a $100 ticket sale and lottery. Could also raise a lot of money

I dunno. The Mac Cafe would be a pretty bodacious place to hang with my crew, compadre.
Very nice concept art. Maybe better than the reality?
