I don't think Apple went for or took that market. The right-hand side of the workstations diagram was mostly replaced by Windows NT - some exceptions in artsy professions which use macs (probably by a similar proportion to those that did before 1996). A combination of Windows and free unix have replaced the other side.
Apple's focus and new success has been at and among home users, and things like iTunes and iWork. If they had been focussed on what was once the 'workstation' area we'd have seen far more emphasis on their proven development technologies and collaborative workplace technologies. WebObjects has survived, but it was looking dubious for years. I wouldn't be surprised to hear that there was still more OpenStep deployed on traders' desks than OSX.
