Friends Kingdom: Re: [iPad] winning the lottery

I believe that any such problems are due to the Board not TC. At the end of the day its a business, with shareholders to satisfy.

When Apple forgets about it's customer base, becomes the arrogant company Cook it taking them, the cash influx will dry up if Cook doesn't spend a dime. Apple seems to me they must sell millions of new phones with a slightly different color twice a year. What is new with Apple lately? Is the iPhone improved? Was bigger the answer?

Apple's net cash at the end of the 3rd quarter of 2015 (total cash minus total debt) was roughly $149 BILLION. That was up $28 BILLION during the previous 11 quarters. And that isn't even all of the Tim Cook era.

Nothing matters but how many marbles you have?

At least pay attention to YOUR OWN statements…

You stated:
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

So predicating the success of Apple on the cash available was YOUR argument.

I merely pointed out that much, if not most of the present cash available was earned during Cook's tenure, not Jobs'.
