Scott Forstall was fired for less serious issues, but Apple has continued to roll on without firing any other high level executives (directly connected to technology) in the last few years. Someone needs to take responsibility for the overall sad state of the Mac, all the software quality issues on its platforms, and the hardware quality issues.

To outsiders, Apple seems like an opaque and uncaring company, and for good reasons. What Apple needs is to spend time on self-reflection from top to bottom and radical thinking to change "the way things are". Until that happens, I wouldn't expect groundbreaking changes. "Think different" is what it badly needs. The sooner, the better.
