They dont have a huge piece in the business world as of yet. They are huge in graffic design, and will be a big player in the business world in time. You are seeing more and more macs in that end of the world as their products become more friendly for business owener's.

Again I don't see the comparison between the Microsoft and Apple stock price, there is way more involved in that share price number. Other than that I completely agree with you. Apple brought out a few products that swept the consumer markets because of intuitive designs. There is no doubt in my mind that they have the leading product in Cell phones, tablets, and music devices. Leading isn't right either... their products dominate those facets of the market. Their Personal Computer Business on the other hand has a very niche market, as you mentioned graphic design and several others such as audio/video production, very artsy type things. But for a company looking for a workstation for an employee to work on data entry an apple is very over priced. Either way the make of your PC will always be left up to the person buying it. People like different things for different reasons. Apple and Jobs have shown a glimmering of what the future may look like, people all over connected to each other while holding a wealth of knowledge in a compact small touch screen. Just think of the gains in technology in the next 50 years. Jobs and Apple may be to thank for that... maybe not. Who knows.
