Adam,
I just wanted to mention that I in no way was attempting to take away from the talented people at Apple, who in the final analysis are the core of the company (no pun intended). I am a user and an investor, and therefore rarely get to know the names of the individuals that put their blood and guts into these wonderful products. I can only hope that under Jobs' watch, such people are treated with the praise and respect that they deserve. I hope that such was your experience.
Unfortunately, the leaders often get more credit than they deserve. It's the way of the World. A good leader, in my opinion, will do what he can to compensate for that inequity.
As you may have guessed, I bleed 6 colors and have done so since 84'. I realize that you must dance around the disclosure agreements, but be that as it may, I'm glad you are posting to this thread in whatever capacity you feel is appropriate.
Good luck on your new venture,
Scott |
