More to the point, Apple is now making most of its profit from iPhone/iPad/iTunes -- not personal computers. MS has been much less successful outside of its core business.
That's not true. The iPhone, the iPad, and the Mac are making the most money for them. iTunes was an investment to drive customers to their hardware, as they have always been a hardware company in terms of business model. The Mac still does a lot of profit for them.
As for Steve, it's sad to see him leave the company's CEO post and see him in poor health.
