When I was at the West Coast Computer Faire in April '77 and we were introducing the Apple II, the competitors were saying it was a "toy" and doomed and "might make a good video monitor driver" for their serious computers. So I've listened to people predict the demise of Apple from the very beginning. Yes, it came close to happening in '85 and '97. But to predict an Apple failure today? Wow.
