Apple under TIm Cook

I feel Apples declining under Tim Cook and not just because of today's miss. Anyone else feel that way? Steve Jobs seemed to have this unique ability to foresee the future and predict the change in landscape while Tim Cook is just trying to milk the current pipeline as much as he can. And Tim Cook is suppose to be the SUPPLY CHAIN guy for fucks sakes, how many supply issues can one have in 3 quarters.

Eventually they'll venture out into other markets, no? TV?

If they continue to upgrade what they have, apple users will just keep paying up.

Wonder when they are coming out with their music stream?

 

I concur, but this had to happen at some point, and I'm not sure we can blame T. Cook.

I mean how thin, high-def, and fast can a phone/tablet be?

The music is slowing down.

 

Well i think with their ecosystem it would take some time be like an HPQ, but seems like innovation is starting to slow down at Apple. Steve Jobs picked new products and contents, Tim Cook just refreshes hardware, formfactor and case. Seems like he doesn't have the vision to think beyond the casing and shit like the PC market. If i was a betting man, I would have taken Steve Jobs to take Apple to $1,000, but Tim Cook i think he'll just coat tail off jobs shit with some refreshes to $750 maybe.

 

I think it's too soon to be calling it on Cook. This is still Jobs' pipeline shit and if he was out there Apple wouldn't be getting blasted like it is.
