I was making a joke. To debate how one of the greatest tech leaders in the world would be honored on a webpage if they were to pass at the height of their career is quite foolish and mundane. Microsoft WOULD probably take a more corporate standpoint and not flog a leader like a cultist to be honest, but I wouldn't argue it.

Let's be honest, Apple didn't shut down their home page. There's a very visible "X" in the corner that can disable this immediately.

It's certainly a touching tribute, but let's not act like Apple is sacrificing significant revenue (which is looks like some people are assuming).

The letter from Cook brings the spotlight back onto Apple's products.

The video was really good though :)
