Steve Jobs is right. It is better for you to define the market rather than let your competitors do it for you.
This attitude also requires you to obsolete your products before your competitors do. Apple has done a good job in this regard.

Based on the outcome of the most recent confrontation to make the news, I'd much rather be in the Navy.
