> Tim Cook is known as the most powerful homosexual tech executive.

Ummm, so what? The CEO executes at the pleasure of the Board, to increase the value of the company. Damn few Apple stockholders are complaining about the performance the past few years while Cook has been running it. His sexuality has nothing to do with his ability to be CEO.

> Many have said he is just a disgusting, mean person.

Ummm, so what? As CEO, Jobs was no bluebird of happiness either. He was imperial, arbitrary, harsh, judgmental, and many other very unpleasant things. OTOH, he was RIGHT nearly all the time, and successful, and that's what counts. Cook probably runs the company in a similar vein... so what? In this business, nice CEOs rarely succeed.

You're welcome to your opinion, of course, but methinks you've got some Apple envy. You might want to reflect on that, or not, as you wish. Cheers!
