Sure, Jobs was not an inventor, he was a refiner, like a great chef who takes local village recipes and refines the dishes and the presentation into a $300 Michelin star restaurant. He had a great talent for taking something new, packaging it into something people wanted, and then making them want it. I had several “smartphones” before the iPhone and the first time I used an iPhone I knew it was different. I’ve seen my 9 month old baby do basic navigation on my iPhone, while I seen 45 year old colleagues of mine at the time flummoxed by my Nokia N95.

Cook will be there to see the transition from Intel to “Apple Silicon”. But Apple wouldn’t have succeeded without Cooks operational expertise. Apple never had to manufacturer at the scale it does now during Jobs first tenure.
