It is way too early to proclaim that history is repeating itself. 20 years ago Apple were a rudderless ship. Today they are on of the most efficiently operating computer companies out there. They have a vision, they have a solid foundation on which to build, and they have the resources to execute rapidly on that vision.

because they detached the rudder 26 years ago.

Sounds like you're talking about Apple of 1982-84. Apple that had had a several years long run under Jobs. Btw, the vision they execute today is the vision outlined in the Jobs' 30 years old Macintosh business plans.
