If it weren't for iPad, Apple wouldn't have a chance against Microsoft. It's always been that way

And if it weren't for Windows, Microsoft would just be another Adobe.

This argument has always bugged me. Yes, if we just disregard everybody's successes, they're all failures. What point are you trying to make?

The thread is saying Apple is nearly as big as Microsoft, but this would of not been possible without iOS. Still impressive for a companies that makes the software and hardware itself and limits the rights to use such software to itself, when windows is used by dozen of companies worldwide.
