With Steve Jobs out of Apple, will his replacement fit in his shoes?

Where Apple is right now, it can only go one direction, unless the next guy deliberately brings it down, and Tim Cook is no such person since he's worked nearly all his caree life under Jobs, and remember, Jobs has been named the company board chairman. Looks like no net effect to me. ./Ok3ch On Thu, Aug 25, 2011 at 8:16 AM, Paul Roy Owino <roykoikai@gmail.com> wrote:

I think the concern is not if Cook can run the day to day -- that he has proven he can. The concern is if he has the eye for design, features and functionality that Jobs had On Thu, Aug 25, 2011 at 8:54 AM, Phares Kariuki <pkariuki@gmail.com> wrote:

He can always live under Job's shadow, consulting him every now and then, until the time Jobs cannot have new ideas anymore:) On Thu, Aug 25, 2011 at 08:58, Rad! <conradakunga@gmail.com> wrote:

@Rad! no one can replace Jobs, just like no one could replace Gates and the same for MJ in Safcon - every new person has a different style, and what remains to be seen is if Tim Cook's style will reign supreme or even surpass Job's. ./Ok3ch On Thu, Aug 25, 2011 at 9:04 AM, Odhiambo Washington <odhiambo@gmail.com>wrote:

I don't think it will falter or drop in profitability. The same was thought of safaricom and the incoming Bob but turns out that is exactly what was needed,an accessible ceo who loves social media and is willing to experiment on using twitter as a cs avenue. . etc I suppose only time can tell.
