Very valid points. Although I think you could emphasize Apple's success quite a bit more:
Apple is the 2nd largest American company period, by market cap -- right under Exxon Mobile.
Let me say again: Apple is the second largest company -- not just tech company, company in general. They have $50 Billion in liquid assets, with no debt. Their latest quarter was their best quarter ever. And by most accounts, they are still growing at quite a clip -- most analysts have Apple's stock pegged to go significantly higher. And their stock is at something like a quite-reaosnable 20:1 P/E ratio -- it's not a bubble stock price, in other words.
Yes, Apple is selling something like 10% of consumer computers in the USA, and less than that globally. But they are the SECOND BIGGEST COMPANY PERIOD, and one of the most profitable companies period. I think if the game keeps playing out like this, they have no interest in doing what Google, or anybody else, is doing.
