Bloomberg chastising Jobs for Apple stores (circa 2001)

It is a funny read now. This guy could not have been more wrong.

haha wow was he wrong lol

Gee.... Bloomberg being wrong about something. What a shocker. Don't get me started on that clown and his ridiculous sensitive pandering bleeding heart tactics. I can't stomach the jerk.

It's easy to criticize a new approach. I could have failed, but the author never visited the store and saw how different Apples approach was compared to the old walk in and buy stores .

Help bars, internet access on all display models, and in store theatres for presentations and demos, it was a game changer - but hard to foresee whether it was going to be a success or failure at the time

While it can be easy to criticize new approaches, the way they try to talk, as if they are the experts at telling the future or something, just disgusts me! In reality, those stores will either do good or bad, a 50/50 chance. He could have simply said he would slide towards them failing, but he specific things as if he actually knows the future. That's why I don't pay attention to any of these people who like to give advice on future investments. On a 50/50 chance, you will be right sooner or later. Guess he probably choked on his words a couple times.

I wonder what he has to say about the microsoft stores?

And that's why journalists make bad CEOs!
