Honestly, I didn’t think I’d see that day when Apple surpasses Microsoft in market capitalization. Of course, measured by how many operating systems are being sold, Microsoft is still leading. But in terms of market value, Apple has now become the biggest tech company in the world.
A bit scary, so much success. Is there a break? Apple’s success may increase, but alongside I see an image problem arising, with Apple’s attitude and an incapability to grasp people’s interests. Apple has clearly reached that point where it has the power to decide to become the next Microsoft — with all bad karma included — or to clean up its strategic orientation and figure out how to work with people’s interests.
