Oh, that pickle's gonna be popular!
Apple CEO succession speculation again points to John Ternus as the leading candidate, but multiple strong candidates still make it anybody's guess who will helm Apple after Tim Cook retires. appleinsider.com/articles/26/01…
Whoever the next CEO of Apple turns out to be I hope they emphasize a need to shore up their core services like iCloud, Mail, etc. Seems like they've let these things go stale to focus on selling iPhones for a decade.
They could do worse.
He named the company Apple because it came before Atari in the phone book. 🤣
