But at Apple scale: 9% of $58 billion = $5.2 billion Mac revenue last quarter.

Yes, that is what drives me crazy whenever people say Mac is only 9% of revenue and they dont care about it.

If the Mac revenue was separated out on its own, it would be about Fortune 120, that is higher than Kraft Heinz. With plenty more space for growth. Apple only has 100M Active Mac users. There are 1.4B Windows PC.

OTOH when Apple was a much smaller company the mac was much more important to them and it showed.

Maybe it's not related to revenue per se, but clearly since iOS became their main thing the Mac has suffered tremendously.
