When the previous CEO was regularly coming out with put downs targeting the Android platform, I was thinking “What planet is this guy on?”. Is he in the same reality as the rest of us?
The new CEO is at least acknowledging that they are losing ground big time. The pattern of the head-honchos at large companies getting comfortable with a view of world and then being shocked when that view crumbles because of some technology or market shift is such a common one. Ivory towers anyone?
