        Told y'all, he is Steve Job guy. Not Tim Cook. I already mentioned this way months before he officially become the CEO. He worked with Steve Job when he was still young and been around Apple longer than most of the people you seen on Apple event presentation video.

But I really have no problem with Vista or either Windows 8/8.1, unlike with 10 or 11. Which I actually do not use anymore. My primary device is Mac since 2018 and my gaming PC is on Linux since last year's January.

Most of those managers need to justify their existence in companies at the expense of real work and the ones who do them.

Now, we have an actual engineer that actually knows which people are working and which are not needed. I think it is a great change and maybe Apple with start to innovate again.

                            Faster Products = Failed Products
                            See POCO F8 Ultra -> POCO F9 Ultra
                            Who's Failed Product
                            The F9 Ultra
                            Zero new Things
                            Only Battery Size bumped to 8050mAh
                            And the Price exploded from 749€ (Poco F8 Ultra Launch) to 1299€ (source: Amazon.de)

                                The faster a product is forced the crappier it is, thats why Microsoft warned corps about Vista
