Otherwise a reputation can leach away before you know it.

Tim – I like the analogy!

Pathetic!

I think his personal involvement in the brand as well as the products was highly significant. I still think they enjoy a pretty fabulous reputation, but I agree the signs are that it’s slipping ever so slightly and needs driving from the top. I suspect Jobs is a hard act to follow.

But I guess that simply goes to prove that you can f**k up reputation just like anything else.
