The iPod saved Apple, the iPhone made it the powerhouse it is now. Everything else seems like marginal impact. The new chip is nice and helps them have more control over and lower prices but as of yet doesn't seem to be an immediate game changer.

Disagree, the power series Mac’s were in the verge of not being able to run photoshop on par with windows. The last core group to keep the Mac alive was designers. If Apple had stuck with power series they wouldn’t have survived.
