Re: [iPad] Apple: A Recipe for the Next Five Years

 

Apple has traditionally used software to drive hardware sales and they still make a tidy profit off the hardware. Certainly though I see services as a growing portion of the pie. Which I understand because iPhones easily last 3 years. iPads longer. All these things just last. I daily use two Apple products almost a decade old. The need to replace just isn't there when stuff just works and keeps on working. And they want revenue to grow and the article even says that the growth of services will outpace the growth of hardware but both will still have growth. One will just have a growth that outpaces the other growth. In my limited understanding all growth is good.

Apple's services unit could grow at a 15% annual rate for the next five years, one analyst says, as hardware sales eke out smaller gains.

Hardware spinoff in the offing?  If so, good riddance to the rest.
