Basically, he accepts that Apple lags behind in technology but Apple can "make things work". Technology alone is not enough - you need a healthy marriage of technology and humanities.
- digi_owl 10y agoNothing new with Apple, the last time they were a early adopter was with the original Mac. Since then they have been latecomer to existing markets, but made a big splash about their entry via their inside track with MSM (a track that exist as a legacy of that Mac).
- mercer 10y agoI'd say that's selling Apple short. I have no particular love for them, especially at this moment, but they make a big splash because they (still?) manage to do things right in all the ways that I (and apparently others) care about.
- equalarrow 10y agoBut now it looks like Microsoft is figuring it out. Azure is doing great, the Surface Pro got more love than the MBPro, and Microsoft is actually courting developers with VS. Google? They prob have the best AI, but I'm sorta skeptical that the Pixel is gonna work for them. They've never been able to brand and command like Apple has in this regard. For cloud though, they destroy Apple still.
