Laura Normand / The Verge The rumored debut of a “Reality Pro” headset is right around the corner, but Tim Cook has been singing the praises of AR for years. With Tim Cook as CEO, Apple has become the most valuable company in the world, having passed a $3 trillion market cap in the past and sitting at around $2.6 trillion as of this writing.
