Kris just said something that lit a lightbulb for me, opened a new perspective on an old topic. I've deleted his note, alas, but the thought lingers.
Apple got rich on the iPhone, and Tim Cook is using the windfall to push the company into a very different place from the one in which it was when Steve Jobs died. I'm afraid that Tim is in the process of burning through all that cash pursuing a tawdry and unimaginative vision of pop-culture power - Sony on steroids, maybe - but I'm probably wrong. Anyway, the memory of the glory years, when the genuine enthusiasm of a small group of nerds was the driving force behind a small, cool company, are a nice memory.
