So did you miss the part about how "wearables" -- chiefly the Watch and AirPods, which came out under Cook's watch -- is up 37% and now brings in more revenue than the Mac or the iPad, and nearly as much this quarter as Services did? And, for that matter, how services revenue is now a higher percentage of the non-iPhone revenue than any other segment, which is surely being driven in no small part by Apple Music (which is now the #1 streaming music service in the US), which also first appeared on Cook's watch?

All you are doing is cherrypicking data. Are you saying wearables is why Apple's stock gained $1 Trillion? Good god, the paid PR-style activity on some of these posts are absurd.
- chipotle_coyote 7y agoI'm "cherrypicking data" about stuff launched under Cook's tenure that's wildly successful that you said couldn't possibly have happened. Good god, the paid Apple-bashing activity on some of these posts is absurd!
- catach 7y agoMy favorite bit of this is how it seems like nobody wants to grant credit for incredible growth in existing product lines, as if that feat is trivial.
