Joel you have to note that Jobs also head up one of the biggest animated companies as well, I believe, Pixar. It isn't like he didn't do well outside of Apple when he was ousted.


Never indicated he didn't do well. I was indicating that he made mistakes like every other exec while he was at Apple. Just look at the computer division and the Pipin and all the other products Jobs was behind at Apple. Sure the I-Pod , I-Phone and I-Pad have all been very successful but can you credit everything to just Jobs?

Apple has a very talented team and many execs who could probubly stear Apple almost as well as Jobs can. Its not like Jobs himself created the I-Phone , I-Pad or I-Pod, his team did. He probubly had final say on the products but they weren't made by Jobs.

Pixar did great while Jobs was in charge but thats a perfect example. Today Jobs isn't really involved in Pixar yet Pixar is still doing well. The point I was trying to make is Apple may not need Jobs as much as many Apple fans believe.
