[doublepost=1497026763][/doublepost] You listed a ton of amazing and impressive technical qualifications but I don't think Apple needs a technical leader. They need a leader who is good at numbers. Supply chain, customer satisfaction, shareholder dividends, global view of markets and currencies and suppliers, etc. tim is perfectly placed as CEO because he's surrounded by a group of VPs that are highly technical.
Steve's 2nd coming at Apple brought a Jobs that knew he wasn't an expert in these sort of things so he hired Tim, Phil, Jony, Bertrand, and Scott and for the most part, Jobs was big picture about almost every single topic but buck stopped there / first right of refusal for "stupid ideas". He seemed most focused on design than anything else.
Tim was a natural replacement. Jony's role grew, Tim didn't really meddle in the design aspect and everyone rose to more responsibilities.
I don't think Craig, a highly technical person would be the right leader for Apple. Just a gut feeling and very personal opinion.
I hope Craig is in it for the long haul, I just don't know if he's a CEO shoo-in. I'm leaning toward Jeff Williams or Phil Schiller being the guys most likely to be nominated. For the record, I love what Tim has done at Apple and hope he's leading the helm for a very long time and most importantly, has what it takes to step down / retire when the time is right. Nothing worse than a once capable CEO that is now out of their element or too 'semi-retired' to be effective sticking around just because they can. I hope we have Tim at least another 20 years. Being the guy that Steve picked carries a lot of weight with me and how I feel about him.
