In an interview with Bloomberg Businessweek, Google CEO Larry Page said that despite Jobs's rather public hatred, "the Android differences were actually for show." Page claimed that, "For a lot of companies, it's useful for them to feel like they have an obvious competitor and to rally around that. I personally believe that it's better to shoot higher.

"I figured he wanted to spend time with his family at that point. He had a lot of interesting insights about how to run a company and that was pretty much what we discussed.""
