    I notice the same double-standard with everything, even with how Apple presents it's new products. With Steve, every product announcement was overdramatized, everything was "this new AMAAAAZING product" and there were rock bands performing at product announcements and all kinds of circus shit. Many people really made fun of Apple for that. Now, the product announcements are more subtle, less boastful, and people are like, "Oh Apple announcements are not the same without Steve."

    • eh? Apple launches were always cringeworthy - Jobs used to make me want to vomit... but the products were new and interesting.fadein11
    • chillax - it's not your company - people can have a viewpoint. It aint the company it used to be - fact.fadein11
    • "less boastful" lol.fadein11
    • Apple followed the market with 6, they used to lead the market... and it's happening more and more with them.fadein11
    • I agree that Steve's presence made the company produce great things. But, there is only so much innovation to be had.nb
    • iPad Pro is pretty innovative, no? I'd say it's leading the market.nb
    • really? I would say Surface Pro is leading that market i.e. having an OS pro's want/need to use - not a stripped back mobile OS.fadein11
    • Most people don't want a "real" OS.nb
    • why is it called Pro then? a bigger screen?fadein11
    • A rose gold tablet by any other name would smell as sweet.nb
