For 2014 I see 230M tablets, 170M laptops, and recall that Apple is #4 in laptops as well. I think your figures are very shaky.

(Also bear in mind that most non-iPad tablets are in fact nothing like laptop replacements, and many are barely useful for anything or are dedicated bookreaders.) http://www.statista.com/statistics/272595/global-shipments-forecast-for-tablets-laptops-and-desktop-pcs/ http://www.statista.com/statistics/272595/global-shipments-f...
