I think you mean Tim Apple
It’s John Apple now!
(Tim Cook resigned. John Ternus is the current CEO of Apple)
What if it's a Dread Pirate Roberts situation, and every subsequent Apple CEO automatically becomes "Tim Apple"?
Then they should definitely all be Steve Apple.
No, for two reasons. First, there are already two Steve Apples, from the same time, no less. Second, because we don't really want one of those Steves back. Great marketer, shit person.
I like the idea of Apple's leadership working on a princess bride model. Tim Apple is simply a title that gets handed down
Tim didn’t really resign/retire. They promoted him to Chairman.
