Steve Jobs on innovation at Apple

My economic platform as president of the US would be to institute an advanced cloning program to duplicate Steve Jobs and replace the heads of the Fortune 100. I would call this <i>"The De-Sculleyification of America"</i> or <i>"The No CEO Left Behind Act"</i>.

Q: Is this common in the industry?<p>A: Look at Microsoft (MSFT ) -- who's running Microsoft?<p>Q: Steve Ballmer.<p>A: Right, the sales guy. Case closed. And that's what happened at Apple, as well.<p>Ouch.

Just out of curiosity, is Apple really that popular in Silicon Valley?<p>In the places where I've lived, Apple was/is not much of a player at all particularly since the 1990s.<p>I find it peculiar that there are so many Apple-related posts on YC News!
