Newly minted Apple CEO Tim Cook had oversized shoes to fill at the company’s new product launch in Cupertino on Tuesday. He did his best, but like the new product he introduced, he fell a bit short of expectations.
Cook appeared relaxed in his black button-down shirt and jeans and even poked fun at the high stakes of the heavily hyped product launch, his first as spokesman-in-chief since the resignation of Steve Jobs. (“This is my first product launch since being named CEO — I'm sure you didn't know that," he quipped to the crowd.).
No surprise, the disappointment is here.
