I'm taking this as a weak hint that Apple is moving away from what I wish it were. Burberry sells useless stuff for lots of money. I was hoping Apple would try harder to be genuinely useful.
Still, it's a big ship and this hire won't really change anything. And to be able to be useful, Apple are also going to have to be able to extract money from fools.
