My 20GB MP3 player, by iRiver, still has better sound quality than Apple's MP3 players - and came out long before.
My first laptop - surprisingly - came out before Apple's PowerBook's, trackpad and all.
Smartphones existed prior to the iPhone.
And I had PC's (dos based) prior to Mac's existence.
They have affected design - but don't make the assumption that they led the market in creation. They do tend to refine the designs of others rather well, however.
