While an earthquake and a hurricane slammed the East Coast in August, the West Coast endured a different kind of turmoil. Within a 10-day span this past month, Google reinvented itself as a hardware company, Hewlett-Packard moved to ditch PCs and become a software company, and Apple lost its iconic CEO.
