   As usual, you have no clue.   
      
   Does the iPhone bring in a lot more than the Mac? Sure.   
      
   But 12% of the revenues generated from iPhone/iPad/Mac taken together is   
   hardly a "drop in the bucket".   
      
   The Mac brings in more revenue than the iPad and is up 12% YoY compared   
   to 2024, which itself was up 2% from 2023.   
      
   May I suggest you take a few moments to learn something before you type?
