Two months has passed and Apple has been aggressively showing their ambitions for 2008. With each and every super Tuesday, Apple introduced new things

Terrific, isn’t it “and we have 52 weeks to go” (Steve Jobs), so what will be next? MacBook and MacBook Pro already got a bump. Now it’s time for iMac, iPhone SDK, and 3G iPhone

Today, Fortune listed Apple as the No.1 of American’s Most Admired Company for innovation, also ranked Steve Jobs (Chairman and CEO, Apple) as the most powerful people in business Congrats!

The article pointed out what makes Apple golden:

Apple’s philosophy goes like this: Too many companies spread themselves thin, making a profusion of products to defuse risk, so they get mired in the mediocre. Apple’s approach is to put every resource it has behind just a few products and make them exceedingly well.

Apple’s headquarter in Cupertino, Cali is loaded with engineers, but it’s not just the skills that are important, it’s the ability to emote. (“Emotive” is a big word here.) . It also set the gold standard for corporate America with an entirely new business model: creating a brand, morphing it, and reincarnating it to thrive in a disruptive age.

Excellent way to go, Apple and Steve ^-^ We’ll be watching closely, bring everything on and surprise us be Apple, be sophisticated simplicity!
