Apple's federal sales division was one of the strongest sources of revenue during Apple's lowest points, thanks to very good integrated sales & support team that kept islands of Macs in various governmental locations, often doing specialised tasks as graphics/audio workstations and the like. But to get those contracts there had to be appropriate spending by government, and that's what I meant in my comment.
