Tim was perfect as Steve Jobs’ yes man. Steve needed beta males around him. But beta males are not leaders and have no vision.

You're wrong. Apple is at the forefront of innovation. They're going to make an iPhone with an orange case.

Orange!

This is a civilizational leap. Maybe the next, bold step in human evolution even!

The history of Apple’s revenue and 10-Q/10-Ks would say differently.

From an investment perspective? Tim Cook’s reign over Apple has been simply outstanding. I take nothing away from Jobs and the vision, but Cook made it lasting.

I’ll quite readily admit - as a guy who made his bones and cut his teeth in Ops? I admire the hell out of Tim Cook. Operations brings it all together.

The next generation needs vision, but as somebody who did quite well investing in Apple under Cook? Fare thee well. You done good, fella.
