Apple Is Biting Off More Than It Can Chew

I had a feeling, the tea leaves were lining up for an Apple without Jobs. Bummer!

Apple Is Biting Off More Than It Can Chew

I understand the sentiments of everyone and respect their feedback.

But I do wonder what people to think of an equity analyst who claims to have a MBA from a top-10 B-school but trolls and steals analyses from SA. Peter, what do you think?

Apple Is Biting Off More Than It Can Chew

Fanbois, inorder for Apple to really become a volume player it has to rechristen itself as a serious platform. For this it has to
-- focus on creating a h/w ecosystem. No more of the only apple products work with your Macbook thing.
-- develop the s/w ecosystem; attract ISVs over. In today's date, MS and Adobe are the two main ISVs for Mac products and then the long tail starts
-- Apple will have to invest heavily into evangelism. No more of the secret only comes out at Macworld mantra.

My take is Apple traditional strength is a few key vertical experiences-- neat, sexy and thoroughly planned. Will it be able to give up control of the platform and experience if it were to expand? Additionally, can you please tell me which other exec from Apple do people know or have heard of besides SJ? The problem with strong personalities such as SJ is that they often eclipse people under and around them-- this is concerning if a change in guards is in the works.

Flame on :)
