>> Totally different situation.

Yes, but Shugart was no Jobs.

Jobs was brilliant beyond understanding. He was, in fact, not so nice to his employees, but he had a single focus which was on the product in situ within a marketplace. He thought of things like, "Gosh, our customers are going to have these things in their pockets with their keys. We can't have them getting all scratched up." Which led to a last-minute change in the glass.

That company is lost without him. Paralyzed, unable to innovate, still riding the iPhone.
