Benefits: Makes Steve Jobs' baby the only thing important at Apple.
Drawbacks: Does away with cash cow invented by Steve's archrival, Steve.
Risks: None worth mentioning (obviously -we're talking about Steve Jobs

WebObjects during an interview about becoming a billionaire due to
ToyStory, a movie produced by a company that he bought, rather than a
company he founded).
