Windows Phone and tablet sales are merely rounding errors, so it has about as much effect on the graph as including Apple TV in the iOS sales (it does run iOS, but doesn't have a touchscreen or run any of the same apps). The Xbox is selling reasonably well, but again it is not even close to the same league as the iPhone business. You either don't realize how small the markets you mention are, or your mental image of Apple is stuck 5 years in the past. Apple sold more iOS devices in the last 3 months than Xbox 360 has shipped its entire lifetime.
