5:32 pm
made the product appealing writing your hand, he got and what with the advertising in the stores and that is something that no other company has really managed to accomplish at all. and i also think that you cannot replace someone like steve jobs. it is like trying to replace him before, or john rockefeller or some other, one of the great business people are time. but i will say that apple is in good hands. tim cook, the new ceo is someone that has been at apple and a very--a very long time and is very well liked by people on wall street in he has a host of other talented executives and it is terrible, the news comes just one day after apple
5:33 pm
just yesterday announced the new version of the iphone and at that event, many of these other apple executives were part of the presentation and you got a real sense that one of his accomplishments in some ways, one that think that is not as well known is that he built a very strong team to continue, to continue the company now that he is gone. so i think that apple will be fine for quite a few time to come. >> apple will be fine and other companies use a have strong leaders believe steps in and with that same passion for innovation that he seemed to have, does anyone else even comes to mind you? >> well, you know they have, the new ceo tim cook is someone who is known more as an operator, someone who has great ability to run the business, they have a number of other people who do have,
5:34 pm

5:35 pm
passionate about the things that he did you know, he was considered not the easiest person in the world to work for, he with a perfectionist, someone who really pushed his people hard to get the best from them but apple employees are very intensely loyal to him in the same way that the customers for apple products have been intensely loyal. he is someone who was, i used to use this phrase, talk about products that were insanely great, he was that insanely great leader for apple, for the valley and i think the world is a little less great. >> truly a huge loss he was in the process of building the new construction for apple in the south bay.
5:36 pm
>> yes apple fairly recently announced plans for a huge new headquarters building in cupertino and not far from their current headquarters it is a fairly unusual design, this large doughnut shape building that looks like a spaceship. in fact, not that long ago steve was testifying about plans for this nukes, this new building at some hearings in cupertino to get approval for the construction and um i think it is good to go forward and maybe it will be the steve jobs building we will see how that goes. but again it was something unlike any other building that has been seen in the valley as usual, he was just trying to do things in a very different way. >> thank you so much for
