I think Tim Cook has done an extraordinary job. I think he's done an extraordinary job, especially given the cards he's dealt. Right. What alternative was there? Right. Like Steve died. I don't know the circumstances, but I don't think, you know, I think it was a little bit like, you know, he resigns in August, dies in October, only eight weeks later.

A couple things to say, though.
