I think that apple has done very well for itself. I believe that Steve Jobs has put Apple on a great course which will stand the test of time. Who would lake the iPhone if they were gone? Steve is truly a visionary that has inspired me through out the time I have been in college. Apple and the products that they make become a part f your life that is important in your everyday being. There is not a company around that I would rather spend my money on. I wish Mr. Jobs the best and maybe it is time that he passes on the torch; after all he has been doing this for a long time. As far as Apple going under you need a good competitor to take them out who will that be? Definitely not the idiots at Microsoft!

What fanbase? 1% of the computer marketshare hardly equates to a fanbase. More like a cult.

[...] “It’s About Time” says TechCrunch? I think there is something wrong with the analysis offered in this post. Maybe there is some sort of relationship at play here and TechCrunch is doing its bit to soften the anticipated blow to Apple’s stock price over this? I ask this question to peak your interest in social capital, not to suggest some sort of explicit conspiracy. [...]

If Jobs doesn’t want to do the keynote, that’s one thing, but Apple seems to be deserting MacWorld and that’s a blow to a lot of hardcore users who consider MacWorld their primary fan event.

It also helped that fanbase not fixate so much on the fact that their hardware design is awesome but those computers just aren’t as reliable as they used to be.

It’s probably a good thing. It was uncomfortable watching Jobs doing the dog and pony show while looking sickly and emaciated. I’d imagine Apple also got that vibe.

He should look after his health now.

I’ve bought a ton of Apple products because I need them for work (I compose music for film) but their quality is starting to dwindle. My Powerbook G4 has these lines of different colors coming down the screen, and more keep appearing every week. I called Apple and they said I should just upgrade to a new laptop. Here’s to a company that was once great, let’s see what happens in 2009.

I’m glad they decided. it leaves them more time to work on the products rather than the hype or whatever.

I want to something like Zune Pass for iTunes…definitely.
