The new Apple CEO, Tim Cook: “Apple is not going to change”
Tim Cook, who reportedly sent out a letter to all Apple employees Thursday morning reassuring them that Apple is not changing course.
His full email below.
Team:
I am looking forward to the amazing opportunity of serving as CEO of the most innovative company in the world. Joining Apple was the best decision I’ve ever made and it’s been the privilege of a lifetime to work for Apple and Steve for over 13 years. I share Steve’s optimism for Apple’s bright future.
Steve has been an incredible leader and mentor to me, as well as to the entire executive team and our amazing employees. We are really looking forward to Steve’s ongoing guidance and inspiration as our Chairman.
I want you to be confident that Apple is not going to change. I cherish and celebrate Apple’s unique principles and values. Steve built a company and culture that is unlike any other in the world and we are going to stay true to that—it is in our DNA. We are going to continue to make the best products in the world that delight our customers and make our employees incredibly proud of what they do.
I love Apple and I am looking forward to diving into my new role. All of the incredible support from the Board, the executive team and many of you has been inspiring. I am confident our best years lie ahead of us and that together we will continue to make Apple the magical place that it is.

Steve Jobs Resigns from Apple.
Steve Jobs has stepped down from his position as CEO of Apple.
“I have always said if there ever came a day when I could no longer meet my duties and expectations as Apple’s CEO, I would be the first to let you know. Unfortunately, that day has come,” the 55-year-old CEO said in his letter of resignation.
Steve will be replaced by Tim Cook, the company’s current COO. Jobs will become Apple’s chairman of the board of the directors.
Steve’s health has often been in question after he received a liver transplant for pancreatic cancer in 2009.
Steve Jobs‘ full letter of resignation…

I have always said if there ever came a day when I could no longer meet my duties and expectations as Apple’’s CEO, I would be the first to let you know. Unfortunately, that day has come.
I hereby resign as CEO of Apple. I would like to serve, if the Board sees fit, as Chairman of the Board, director and Apple employee.
As far as my successor goes, I strongly recommend that we execute our succession plan and name Tim Cook as CEO of Apple.

I’m in love with Apple Macintosh
The tittle say it all! Recently (September 3rd 2010) I bought my own Apple Macbook Pro 13.3″ inch at AV Electronic, Brunei, at their Main Branch Kiulap. It was early in the morning to pay for it, & I was expecting it for 2 weeks to get it on hands tho, however a kind lady ask me to wait for a while. That time I figure it should be another document to sign on. But then she called my name and say some words, with a box of Apple Macbook Pro on her hands. So there I was, between shock and confused; I was not sure I was happy for it or not, but I think I was rather numb at that moment. The last words she said to me was “Enjoy your new Mac” and I sign off by saying, “Thank You”.
It was very weird, I haven’t yet told my parents that I bought a new laptop, thinking how their reaction would be is a morning nightmare and Ironic I also wasn’t ready to bring it to home too. However, nothing massive reactions produced during the confrontation. I did show off to the parents of the new box I received :)
I’m very please to finally have a macbook as my personal belonging. I dreamt for it for almost 4 years! – Since the Macbook Black 13.3″ inch was released. I’m still waiting for my iPad to arrived too. My list of Apple gadget grew longer after I owned this Macbook. I wish to buy the new iMac, the iPod Touch and also the iPhone 4. Having said that, I need to think twice and more on my final say and action. I need to save some dollars, as I believed someday I would love to do other big “project” with the money I saved.
Its been a long time I have not say anything on this weblog. But for sure some of you who have been waiting for my update, I say thank you. I would also like to say a Big thankx you to Hamdi HT of Medewa Village, for bringing the ease, kind and optimistic to my life. Only the Almighty knows how grateful to me to have a great friend like you. May Allah bless you and your family always. =) Before I go.. Let me wish you, Happy Ramadhan and Selamat Hari Raya AidilFitri.

I love art. Seriously I Do!
ART
I love graphic arts. Seriously I do.. I appreciate them.. but not the same way I appreciate movies, dramas or musics. Graphic arts gives an alternative way of expression, which need to be understood by the creative one (Who can see or feel). I’m no fluent on arts, so I won’t really talk much about it, but for a record I am an Adobe Photoshop user :) I like to create logo for myself and do some graphic/web designing when I have my techno Mojo on.
I’m suppose to be sleeping right now, Coz I need to take my Letter from The Department of Schools, Brunei. But I think I can handle 2-3 hours of sleep before driving there.
Well recently, I have a feeling to read art blog; technically searching for a designed theme for this personal blog of mine. Yes, I’m searching for a new WordPress Theme. I wanted it to be simple, easy and clean yet give a fresh feeling. I like simple; simple make life easy.
So I end up visiting this simple white skin theme of Tumblr (a free blog for people, just like blogger.com). The theme was created by a guy name Matthew Stubbings (Or just Matt) of Toronto, Canada. He label his project works as DOIN’ Work (You can visit his DOIN’ WORK at http://doinwork.tumblr.com/). In the same time going through his theme, my head speaks that I want this theme on WordPress. Its really nice, you should go have a visit on his work. Or his Personal Website or something like a Portfolio site at http://www.mattstubbings.com/ . He also produce Music/ Djs Part-time check his DOIN’ Music at http://doinmusic.com/ I call this person SUPER ART!
Click by Clicks, I stumble most of his art designs; and all I can say is, ITS VERY Impressive and beautiful. I wish I was gifted with art ability, where a person can draw, or sketch graphic easily and maybe do some Gravity Art in the free moment. Arts is simply beautiful. I should contact Matt soon, just to say Hi and if he can give me a free WordPress Theme hahaha.

- I miss my WWF (then; now WWE) era in the 1998 – 2000. I miss Steve Austin (Stone Cold), The Rock, The Long Hair Christian (Cage) – Jason Reso, Owen Hart, The God Father, The Generation X etc… Many years flown by, and I’m Happy to see Christian (but now with short Hair haha). He was on TNA for 3 years (2006-2008), but now he returns to WWE. :)
- I feel like getting a DSLR Camera, You know just to have fun with it, but not thinking to do pro on it.. And I’m thinking to get CANON! and 2nd to Nikon :)
- I’m so sleepy now.. So I shall sleep now..
