$13 billion in 13 weeks: Apple's Tim Cook to host a celebratory town hall meeting today at 10am PST
Apple's new CEO Tim Cook, who just presided over the most stellar quarter in the company's history, sent a letter out to the troops that he will be holding a town hall meeting at 10am PST today for all employees, to congratulate them and "discuss some exciting new things".
While it is unlikely that any new product will be announced, previous such town halls were assembled by Steve Jobs on similar short notice, and mainly consisted of patting on the back and poking fun at competitors.
Apple, which made over $13 billion in 13 weeks last quarter, has all the rights to do so, and employees who are not able to join the gang on the premises, can tune into the internal AppleWeb network and watch it live. Here's the full text of Tim Cook's email to the troops:
