Last week there were reports that Apple's board of directors on company performance began plummeting uneasy. If Fox Business News Network reliable insider news, Apple is also on the company's board of directors, "the pace of innovation," expressed concern. As the founder of MacWEEK, all I can say is, "This is all deja vu." According to Fox Business News reporter Charlie Gaspar Reno (Charlie Gasparino) reported last week, "according to people familiar with the news, Apple's board of directors on the company's pace of innovation is concerned. Apple recently launched what product do? They There iPad, as well as some other products, but they do not compare in innovation Steve Jobs (Steve Jobs) at the time. Such concerns have been on CEO Tim Cook (Tim Cook) constitute a pressure on He quickened his pace of innovation. " Throughout history, Apple has behaved very well. After all, who would not like to have products like the iPad and complacent it? iPad is a little more than three years time, sales reached staggering 155 million units. Who will lead the smart phone is a product design trends smug it? iPhone in just six years, sold 388 million. However, as the following chart shows these two, although the iPad and the iPhone is still showing growth in overall sales growth trend, but in the past two quarters, the speed of these two products is unprecedented landslide, even considering the seasonal factors included, this situation has not changed. Meanwhile, the market research firm IDC data released last week show that the second quarter of this year, Android smartphone shipments worldwide reached 187.4 million, up 79.3% market share; contrast, iPhone worldwide shipments of 31.2 million , the market share of only 13.2%. Apple's two major flaw Please forgive me pulls out an old account, but I did see a similar scene, the protagonist of the play just changed it. Now, let us look at Bill Gates (Bill Gates) in 1984 for Macintosh conference, the kind words of this product, it is clear that his praise is not from the heart. Please note that the gates at the last moment reveals the feelings of pride, and his pride hidden behind what is it? Macintosh is really a new standard for the industry? Really inspire imaginative new standards? When Google (890.41, -2.25, -0.25%) executive chairman Eric Schmidt (Eric Schmidt) Jobs discussing the new generation iPhone, Apple's board of directors out of the conference room, his face also reveals Gates same proud expression. Let Schmidt get a board seat, is clearly a flaw in Apple. Another flaw is that, in 1997 Steve Jobs announced Apple's acquisition of Power Computing, which is the only one successfully build Mac compatible manufacturers. At the same time, another clone of Windows 95 from the Mac world domination began the journey taken. Indeed, for each site can see the Apple Logo with the computer, I am very happy. I think that these places people like Apple's products. But if it is not Apple's total 543 million sold worldwide for the iPhone and iPad, Mac computers might not be everywhere. It is thanks to the iPhone and iPad's hot, Windows PC's market share was constantly being eroded. However, with the iPhone's charisma to attract users to switch to Mac camp, may not be Steve Jobs strategy envisioned in 1997. As IT magazine CITEworld editorial director Matt Rosoff (Matt Rossoff) has pointed out, if you count the Tablet PC, Apple is still the world's largest computer manufacturers. But he also admitted that the world's second largest PC maker Lenovo is quick to snatch Apple's market share.Apple laptop Accu
