    "Apple is designed so that all major (and many minor) decisions are made by a very small group of people, they are not influenced much by suppliers, customers, 99.9% of employees or anyone else; rather is what my friend John Lilly calls a “genius driven” organization. So, with Jobs gone, the question on the table is if the brilliance of CEO Tim Cook and a few others like Jonathan Ive (head of design) and Scott Forstall (head of IOS software) can sustain the firm’s dominance and creativity."
    - Stanford professor Bob Sutton on Adam Lashinsky’s new book Inside Apple

    Q: What about China?

    TC: Progress has been amazing. 2% of total Apple revenue in ’09, this year just ended it was 12%. This last quarter it was 16%. “It is growing at a feverish pace.” We have 6 stores now in greater China. The online store isn’t even a year old there. Over 7,000 point of sales on the iPhone in greater China. I’ve never seen a country with as many people rising into the middle class aspiring to buy products that Apple makes. It has quickly become #2 on our list of top revenue countries.

    Letter from Steve Jobs

    I have always said if there ever came a day when I could no longer meet my duties and expectations as Apple’s CEO, I would be the first to let you know. Unfortunately, that day has come.


    I hereby resign as CEO of Apple. I would like to serve, if the Board sees fit, as Chairman of the Board, director and Apple employee.

    As far as my successor goes, I strongly recommend that we execute our succession plan and name Tim Cook as CEO of Apple.

    I believe Apple’s brightest and most innovative days are ahead of it. And I look forward to watching and contributing to its success in a new role. 

    I have made some of the best friends of my life at Apple, and I thank you all for the many years of being able to work alongside you.

    Steve

    I don’t like Apple, but I have so much respect and intrigue for this man. 

    Steve, you will be celebrated.

    The MacBook White is dead! Which is a shame because I still think white polycarbonate is a better look than bare aluminum + black glass. Apple’s cheapest least expensive laptop is now the 11-inch MacBook Air.
