"Apple's all products can easily be replaced."

- No wireless. Less space than a Nomad. Lame.

I had the same thought. Apple has a lot of "stickiness" for their customers - whether you think this is due to superior technology or just marketing is debatable. Meanwhile, raw computing power is fundamentally fungible and there's a lot of incentive to undercut NVDA's offerings. The only question is how long it will take to do so.

Apple is only sticky to those who buy into the ecosystem. Those whose a single Apple device (or 2) without paying for any Apple service are not trapped in the walled garden

> Apple is only sticky to those who buy into the ecosystem

That's half of the total market in many countries.

> superior technology or just marketing is debatable

“Superior customer experience” is missing from this. I don’t care if the processor in the iPhone is the fastest or not, or if it has 8Gb of RAM vs some Samsung and I care even less about marketing.
