Re: RIP Steve Jobs. RIP Apple.
#3I shouldn't think we'll see changes in the next couple of years really other than in the the manner of PR/presentation (as we already have with Tim Cooks frankly lackluster performance) - Steve will have had oversight of everything coming out in the next 2 years or so but obviously not the final polish - again it's a debating point
Also there's the fact that has he left some of his 'DNA' with Apple - has he set the company up in a good position to succeed after he is gone, or is this simply not something Steves can truly do? Was Apple too personal to Steve? Is it even possible to define what made Steve Jobs the person he is and in turn what really made Apple a success?

#4This reads like misinformed linkbait. Just the right amount of empathy to get you to the naysaying, and then ignorance of what Tim Cook did for the company in the last 14 years.

I agree, it's written as if the iPhone 4S was developed since Steve left, when in reality he would have been a major cog in the device. Tim Cook has done so much, he was CEO of Apple while steve was away before and the company was fine. Releasing some of their best products with some of the best sales. He changed the supply chain which is one reason the iPad has been so successful as they can build a high quality product at a price the competition can't beat.
Jonny Ive especially shows how important each member of the team was at Apple, steve jobs helped put in place this vision with Tim Cook will instill for years to come.
I find it slightly disrespectful to him that they would post this hours after his death was announced.

Tim Cook must have known that Steve's death was imminent, it would've been hard to present a keynote which Steve would normally do in a situation like this.

Lets face it Tim Cook is no Steve Jobs when it comes to presenting. How do you explain Apple's dip between 1986 to 1996 which coincided with Steve absence?

That's a bad example, they had a bad leader and didn't believe in Steve so completely changed Apple's model, structure and vision. This time it's totally different, Tim Cook has been at the forefront in the last few years, without him the iPad especially (Looks like it could be their most popular product ever, eventually) was all thanks to his deals.
Steve put an amazing team around him like Jonny Ive, it's a very different situation not to then. The company was already on the rocks then, today it's not.
