Today, Steve Jobs, former CEO of Apple stepped down as CEO from Apple. He will be replaced by Tim Cook, former COO of Apple who had been running the day-to-day operations of Apple while Jobs was on medical leave. His resignation came as a complete surprise as his “indefinite” medical leave faded from the newsphere. Jobs is widely credited with bringing Apple back from near-disaster and making it one of the word’s most valuable companies with his instinct for the public’s desire and many products that created new classes of personal devices, such as the iPhone and iPad and bringing attention to others with products such as the iPod.
