One real Criticism I'm starting to have of Cook: He doesn't seem to be able to project a normal human persona. He seems to be in sales personality mode at all times. Cook relied on what has been described as a bad quarter... 50 Billion revenue and 10 billion in profits. Try comparing that to Amazon. He also talked about really really exciting things in the future which he can't discuss. I have to give him credit for showing up on MAD money.

My short take on Tim Cook's interview on Mad Money. Here are the things that stood out for me: By 2022 India will be the most populous country in the world! Not sure that I agree with this, but it does cause me to view the SE in a very different light, even with its smaller margins. Apple generally buys a new company every 3 to 4 weeks! Amazing! Apple generally buys for tech and for really great people. Read for three times out loud for innovation anxiety. Revs from China were larger than any other company. Larger ever number of people switching to iphone. Up 40% in China! They actually met their guidance. Hmmm. I think that part of the problem is that the iphone 6 was extremely successful because of the length of time without a large screen iPhone. It was an outlier.
