Hmm... they seemed to have the MP3 player market pretty much completely last time I looked. And their share of the smartphone market seems to be increasing.

And while it's still small, their share of the personal computer market has been steadily increasing of the past several years.

What almost killed Apple in the 90s, IMO, was a proliferation of undistinguished models and a lack of innovation. Hopefully they'll be able to avoid this, this time.
