I have no major complaints about Apple under Tim Cook - he’s doing a sterling job and the numbers show. Except for the iMac - the Fat Bezels must die!

Well, it’s about time! Qualcomm must be seeing the beginning of the end. On the hook to supply Apple with awesome tech as they watch the end of their relationship from the front row!

Shame, I actually think he's just a guy missing his old friend Steve and was acting out when he didn't get the super-star attention he was used to getting.  Leadership is such a critical aspect of work that when you feel undervalued, it shows in unintended ways.  The other problem is that he was a top-level leader and he affected everyone working below him, so that's uncalled for.  I think it's probably best for him to step aside and let the company take on a different course.  Nobody is indispensable, it's time the other designers stepped up and filled those shoes.

Ok, I can't say my brain didn't hurt a little after concentrating so hard on this article .  However, very good to know that the industry is finally moving forward at this fundamental level.

Uhm, this is the opposite of a win!  The secret to great products is great competition - losing an adversary doesn't translate into a great win.  This is a pity and the battle moves squarely to Microsoft and its Surface line - who would have thought?
