I find it more astounding how no one can do the same.

Is everyone else really that bad? Or is Apple just that good?

Noone else has a guy at the helm of the ship that's a worldclass salesman, a true visionary, an amazing product guy and a detail obsessed perfectionist all rolled into one.

For a company that size, 60% growth is amazing.

It isn't just the ratio of growth, it is also the scale. 60% growth in a multibillion dollar company is much harder than going from 100k to 160k in revenue.
