A comment on Intel Exiting the PC Business as It Stops Investment in the Intel NUC. Parent comment
From 1977 - 1988 Apple was totally dependent on the Apple //e (the Mac was losing money)
From 1992-2003 Apple was totally dependent on the Mac (the iPod was just a meaningful contributor to revenue when iTunes came to Windows.)
When Apple depended on the Mac for revenue, they consistently failed to keep up with Intel - first with the 68K and then with the Mac.
If the iPhone fails, the Mac no matter what would never keep up.
