It's funny, because any old hand at Apple could have told Jobs it would flop because this was a mistake Apple had made repeatedly throughout its history.

Keep in mind that in 1997, Jobs had laid off 30% of Apple and after that, fired people he didn't like meeting in the elevator.

Few people were telling him what he didn't want to hear.

The first iMacs looked cool, but they were a buggy mess. The design was finally corrected in the fall 1999 model.

Then Apple went and made the same "cube" mistake with the 2013 Mac Pro trash can.
