I do not understand if Apple has been able to or will be able to maintain the innovator status in the years to come but Jim will be always defending Apple.

I agree with you but then the company will go down.We should stop expecting great new innovative bug free products from them
PKSThere is no one preventing *you* from having low expectations.It is an excellent plan for getting pleasantly surprised when good products continue to be produced._._,_.___Apple has a turbulent history.But for the fifteen or so years up to Jobs' death, it was an extremely bright history. Jobs enjoyed celebrity status as a kind of white knight riding above and ahead of the herd, as the charismatic and creative head of a fabulously successful technological army. And it wasn't all hype. Some lovely products came out of Cupertino in those days. But when Jobs died, the banner of the Apple army was torn. The army, on its own, under a new leader, began to lose little battles and failed to win any big ones. It began to look as though the magic had been in the leader more than in the army.What this means for Apple's future, I have no idea. But I don't see a coherent growth plan. What, exactly, are they up to? It looks as though they want to become a major player in entertainment, but at the same time remain a consumer-electronics company.I wish they'd stayed focused on personal electronics. I don't like the Beats acquisition. I can identify with a company that keeps trying to push the edge of the envelope with cool tools, but not with an entertainment conglomerate. Sony is a company that wandered into the entertainment swamp and got lost. I hope Apple isn't following in their footsteps.
