Is it? Apple under Jobs was defined by complete perfectionism, which enabled it to create great products.

Steve had great taste - he was as much Chief Designer as he was CEO. Focus comes from the top, and the focus on design has been Apple's secret sauce. Cook is not a designer. His focus is going to be on operations, and Apple's design will suffer for it.

I'm pretty sure those recent Apple Genius ads would have Steve rolling in his grave. I predict that those are just the beginning.
