Steve Jobs!
Does anyone know of something?
He was a great person in some respects but inventer
he wasn't.
He had a remarkable talent for coming up with the right TIMING for
introducing the next iteration of existing products.
He was extraordinarily skilful at marketing, and creating intense brand
loyalty.
iPod
iPhone
iPad
were all versions of existing products that had not previously been
very successful in the market.
Versions, yes...but they're pretty damn nice devices, when you come
right down to it. There's much more than just marketing going on there.
I am by no means an Apple fanboi either.
