Little known fact: the lack of copy/paste in original iPhone OS was a nod to anti-plagiarism and also an attempt to disrupt the education space

Honestly can't tell if sarcastic or serious.
After his demise, from what it seems, Tim Cook never felt for the iPad the same way as Jobs did. Tim is far more profit-centered than Jobs, and Apple's performance numbers lately speak for it. Unlike Steve, Tim Cook doesn't seem like a visionary either. He doesn't appear to have that urge of bringing change into the world.
He isn't of the type who has ability to bring that element of movement into his products. I could be wrong but it seems so. For example, he is unable to see the difference between the idea of revolutionizing education space and the idea of letting out a fashion accessory that competes well with swiss watches!
I mean you get the point, right?
