Remember when Apple killed their server devision? It wasn't because it wasn't profitable - because it was. They killed it because it wasn't profitable enough to be anything other than a rounding error on their accounts.

I fear the same is happening with the MacBook line up when compared against the profits from iOS devices.

I don't know. The Mac still represents a 10% of revenue for Apple, and I'm sure most of that comes from laptops.
