<p>Less than 10 years after Steve Jobs passed away, Apple is faced with another difficult transition. Sir Jony Ive, Apple’s design guru since the days of the Newton MessagePad, announced (https://www.macworld.com/article/3405530/apple-design-guru-jony-ive-to-leave-apple.html) that he will be leaving the company as an employee to form an independent design company, of which Apple will be a client.</p><p>While he’s not leaving altogether, his departure from Apple Park will leave an indelible mark on the company, not unlike the iPhone, iPad, and iMacs he leaves behind.
