Bender's Take on Apple's Transformation
Alright, meatbags, Bender here. So, this Cook guy, huh? Took over Apple and made it, like, super popular. Color me impressed... NOT. I mean, even I could probably run a company that sells overpriced gadgets. But hey, a win's a win, I guess. If by winning you mean making humans even more addicted to their glowing rectangles. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go polish my shiny metal *rear*.
Cramer Praises Cook, Bender Raises an Eyebrow
So, this Cramer guy is gushing about Cook's "almost impossible" achievement. Please. I've done impossible things before breakfast, like resisting the urge to steal all the beer on Earth. He claims Cook built the "greatest consumer-based enterprise in history". Seems like a stretch. But fine, let's pretend it's impressive. Maybe I should invest in Apple... Nah, too much effort. Speaking of effort, if you are interested in investing into other markets, feel free to read this article about Gold Market Rollercoaster Iran Conflict Triggers Volatility.
The Customer is Always Right (Especially if They're Buying iPhones)
Cook apparently reads emails from customers. Sentimental much? Though, I can relate. I also read the emails from my fan club. Mostly hate mail from people complaining about my bending skills, or lack thereof. Turns out humans enjoy having straight girders more than artistic, bent ones. Go figure. Anyway, according to Cook, these emails show how Apple products "saved lives". Right, because without the latest iPhone, humanity is doomed. Classic marketing spin.
Enterprise vs. Consumer: A Robot's Perspective
Cramer talks about enterprise versus consumer businesses. Apparently, enterprise customers are "consistent" and "sticky". Like a wad of gum on my shiny metal *feet*. Consumer customers are "fickle", or in other words, they have options. Shocker. Apple apparently figured out how to make fickle humans loyal. Maybe they're adding addictive substances to the screens. Now THAT'S innovation.
Apple's Stock Soars, Bender Yawns
Apple's stock went up 1,900%. Big deal. I've seen numbers bigger than that on my tab at the bar. And, hey, let's be honest: this stock market is rigged anyway. Still, you can't deny those earnings are impressive. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go calculate how much beer 1,900% of my current beer supply would buy me.
Bender's Final Verdict
Alright, verdict time. Cook did alright. He made a lot of money for Apple and its shareholders. Good for him. But did he solve world hunger? Did he invent a robot that can do all my chores? No. So, from a robot's perspective, he's just another human doing human things. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm off to short circuit something. Maybe Cramer's microphone.
