Apple chief operating officer,, Tim Cook sang the praises of the iPad, outlining the organization's's plans for retail expansion, at a lately talk before financiers at the Goldman Sachs Technology & web meeting in San Francisco.

Besides their massive market share gains, where they're now the most important in the Mobile market before Sony, Nokia, LG, Motorola. For example.

in regard to the PC market Tim Cook said' I think people generally, they believe enterprise is bigger than consumer. But it is's not. In PCs, it's 10%, which is sizable, but buyers are over 60%. Our heart, soul and DNA is in the customer. It just so occurs there are customers working in companies who want to use these products.' obviously the most important thing developing is that Apple has always targeted on the user experience being simple, straightforward and trustworthy - consistent delivery of less instead of inconsistent delivery of more. Their one thing is obviously about purchaser EXPERIENCE, as the driver of their commercial engine.

But what takes the cake comes next. This excerpt from Tim Cook's address to the stockholders is forceful.

'We are the most centered company that I know of or have read of or have any knowledge of!

We say no thanks to good concepts each day. We say no thanks to good concepts in order to keep the quantity of things we target very small in number so that we can put huge energy behind the ones we do select. This table you are sitting at today, can probably fit every product on it that Apple makes, yet Apple's money last year was over $40 billion.'

he goes on to show how this ONE THING has become the company culture and is the key to their success.' I believe any other company that might say that's an oil company. That isn't simply saying yes to the right products, it's saying no thanks to several products that are good ideas, but just not quite as good as the other ones. I believe it is so ingrained in our company that this hubris you talk about that happens to corporations that are successful and who whose sole role in life is to get bigger, I can tell you the management team at Apple would never let that occur. That isn't what we are about. W always keep only a tiny list of things to focus on.'
