"Eighty percent of our revenues are from products that didn’t exist 60 days ago."

I'm sure last time I heard a fact like that about Apple it was more like "products that didn't exist 3 years ago." Impressive that they seem to be speeding up on that measure of innovation.




That is more of a weird bit of rhetoric framing than Apple speeding up. Even though there are new versions of the iPhone and big iPad, very few people would consider them products that didn't exist 60 days ago.


First comment I have seen saying this, and I know that there is more to some of the product changes than just a new plug, but it sure seems bold to call it a new product. Hell, my body is probably 50% new product compared to 2 months ago using that kind of measure.
