Nothing lasts forever. That said, Apple has set the design for the next ten years, minimum....and Google copied it ala Windows. Apple is better prepared for the Post PC world than Google, but Google will likely retain it's lead in smartphones.
The only mystery left is whether Msft will succeed with Windows 8 for pc's, phones and tablets.
Even if Msft comes back with a winner, it won't be to dominate, but to participate.
Apple, by not licensing it's OS will never dominate in Mkt share. But the have a nice first mover position in tablets and phones to keep them rolling in the dough.
Will be interested to see what they have up their sleeves for disrupting the TV market
