Are you trying to argue that AAPL is more diversified than MSFT? http://blogs.technet.com/cfs-filesystemfile.ashx/__key/communityserver-blogs-components-weblog

  Of all the things on that chart, aren't Windows and Office still the primary money makers?

    If you are going to make that argument, almost all of Apple's income comes from the sale of a small handful of hardware products.

      Most of it's profits are from two products (and you could argue that they're actually just different sized versions of one product). I suspect if you look at the correlation between people who buy / use Office and people who buy / use Windows you'd find something very similar - they're closer to one product than they are to two. In reality neither company are particularly diversified (ditto Google who are basically still a search company if you look at where the money is made).

  For profitable product lines, yes.
