Take the iPod maturation under Jobs - each iPod embodiment had a 'purpose' to fill the music / video need in your life. (One could say the iPod Touch was a 'gateway drug' because of vendor lock-in with Cingular/ATT than actually diluting a lower cost product.) Can we say the same of the iPhone line up? or is it excellently amortizing last years A{#} processor downstream at lower prices? I think if we peeled back the facade, we can begin to see that it's been an operations play since Jobs died, and though the M1 is pretty dang amazing, what probably brought it over the line is the insane profit margins and 'upcylcing' Mac sales for folks having a M1 vs M3, etc... But as everyone here has said - it could have been worse.
