Has nothing to do with product, everything to do with the man.

I never said I liked the man personally, and I certainly don't like his politics nor those of AAPL board member A. Gore.

But when you invest in a company, you invest in the products the company will attempt to sell, not the CEO's politics or his personality. So the board was dead-on right to hire Steve Jobs; it was the only real chance to save the company from continuing the way it was headed, which was well on its way toward bankruptcy.
