Thrill is Gone?

"Arthur Levinson, former CEO of biotech company Genentech, is taking on the chairmanship of Apple's board, filling the role that Apple founder Steve Jobs vacated when he died last month."El Reg notes that Disney CEO/President Robert Iger was also appointed to the board, and that this marks the first time since the return of Steve Jobs to Apple that the CEO and board chairman were different people.


What's interesting for me - and it started a couple weeks ago as I was looking at pics of the Apple sr. mgt team and they looked like nice guys and all. but they're just guys.

I've been noticing that with Steve gone my apple "fervor" for lack of a better term is diminishing.
Has it made me want to buy an android phone or switch to PC? nooo - not gone that far , yet.

but the bloom is off the rose. apple seems like just another company - good, better than many, but not the "Magic" place it was under steve.
Guess I'll wait and see what comes...
but interesting to notice.
