Absolutely right.
Apple have thrown away more good technology and talent than most companies
ever possessed and continue to fritter away any advantages they ever had.
Their culture of just being cool is not going to cut it for much longer as
one market after another is subsumed under the technology of their
competitors. All the cute toys could be produced by anyone and probably will
be, but without the R&D to beat a new path you're goose is cooked.
When Jobs returned, Apple became a marketing led instead of an engineering
led company and little good can come of it.
We needed a company like Apple to push things forward for the benefit of
users and the industry but they're blowing it.
