1 - Apple is not going to enter the server market ever again, especially not the generalist cloud infrastructure
2 - 90% of the laptops sold Worldwide aren't Apple laptops, most of them are sub $500 laptops.
Amazon best selling is ASUS Laptop L210 Ultra Thin Laptop, 11.6” HD Display, Intel Celeron N4020 Processor, 4GB RAM, 64GB Storage priced at $199
Basically only Mac users who upgraded to M1 are going to notice the difference
- ogre_codes 5y ago> 90% of the laptops sold Worldwide aren't Apple laptops, most of them are sub $500 laptops. Apple’s share of the total PC shipments is closer to 15% now and their share of the laptop market is even higher.
- dgellow 5y ago... in the US. It's a different story worldwide where Apple is around 8% (source: https://9to5mac.com/2021/01/11/mac-huge-q4-growth-49-percent/ https://9to5mac.com/2021/01/11/mac-huge-q4-growth-49-percent...).
- neogodless 5y agoI tried a variety of Google searches, but I can't find information specifically narrowed down to Apple's share of the notebook/laptop market in the U.S. Can you help me?

- jhayward 5y ago> 2 - 90% of the laptops sold Worldwide aren't Apple laptops, This is perhaps the wrong metric to look at. What % of total profit is Apple capturing? Several years ago the accepted wisdom in phones was that Apple was getting ~30% of the unit volume and 90% of the profit.
- merdadicapra 5y ago> What % of total profit is Apple capturing? Worldwide 9.6%. I rounded it at 10%. > Apple achieved a global desktop/laptop market share of 9.6% and ranked fourth behind Lenovo, HP, and Dell. In the United States, Apple accounts for 12.7% of the PC market
