Steve Jobs, the co-founder and CEO of Apple Inc. was paid $US1 in salary and no bonus in 2005 after he guided the maker of the iPod music player and iMac computer to its biggest profit ever, said Blooberg report on SMH. But this doesn't mean Mr. Jobs won't have big moneys, as he is soon going to be vested the company's shares within this month.Under Jobs' leadership, Apple had a 68 per cent jump in sales to $US13.9 billion last year and net income topped $US1 billion for the first time since the company was founded in 1976, driven by surging consumer demand for the iPod, almost the best-selling music player in the worldmarket. But somewhat not good news is security glitches began to happen to Apple's products other than its Mac Os. Apple has confirmed a vulnerability affecting iTunes and QuickTime that could lead to code being run on the system while yet to issue any patches for the affected software.
Will Apple achieve a more successful year 2006 after its decision to evolve the Macintosh line of personal computers/laptop (e.g. MacBook Pro and iMac), changing to Intel microprocessors and away from the PowerPC chips that have been the foundation of the Mac family for the past epoch (excerpted from Apple's New Core)? Everyone is eying on Steve Jobs!
