Isn’t Apple a Fruit? What Happened to Macintosh apples?

I haven’t been to Apple.com in awhile, but I happened to come accross it today, and something just really struck me. Here have a look:

Notice anything? Let’s count the iPhones. Eleven, wow!

Apple has chosen to give its prime real estate solely to the iPhone. The large main spot and the four minor spots are all devoted to things iPhone. Remind me, but didn’t Apple make Macs, and if so, what happened to them? I’ve never ever seen Apple’s homepage have all 5 boxes devoted to one product. It’s always been a good mix of things.

Let’s just hope that this is a rare event and that Apple is still keeping Mac at the fore-front of Apple. I’d be very disappointed if Apple starts transitiong more into a gadget company instead of a computer company. Let’s hope Steve doesn’t lead Apple astray.

    Steve lead apple astray? Blasphemer!!!
    No, jk, it shocked me too. I don't think they've ever done this before.
  • It's a little bit too much iPhone, yeah. But Apple wants to make the iPhone the third big line of products between iPod and Macs.
    Guess they're focusing again more on Macs as soon as they releasd some of the new iMacs.
