I know I'll get about 1000 down arrows for this

, but I truly think thar Apple is peaking right now in 2012-2013. I think there is no way they sustain anywhere near this growth or profitability especially if they continue to lag behind in hardware and software technology, even if their execution and ecosystems remain strong. We've seen very little real innovation from Apple in the last 2 years and I think the Apple TV route is going to be a long term mistake although I'm sure it'll be hugely successful in the short run. The competition is really heating up now in terms of quality products and innovation. Apple can't sustain relying on marketing and fanboyism for much longer, at least as much as they have in the past, especially after losing their cult-inducing leader. Apple makes good products but purposely holding back technology so that people will buy the next product especially in light of having a single new release product in the phone / tablet market only updated once a year is not going to fly for much longer.
