FWIW, Some other facts to add to the overall perspective and
importance of OS X (and Java) to Apple themselves:

- The iTunes and App Store backends are java serverside apps built on
the java WebObjects web/EOF frameworks and they run on XServe servers
operating Mac OS X.
- Many of Apple's external and internal web applications use a java/
WebObjects based backend including Apple online Store, Apple One-on-
One, Mobile-Me, etc.)
- Everywhere you see a ".woa" or "WebObjects" term in an Apple URL
(although apache rewrite rules can be used to sorten and hide those
details), you are talking to a java application typically running on a
Mac OS X server. (FYI: Note that java/WebObjects apps easily run on
Linux too, and Windows deployment is, let's say, a little more
"involved")

- Also remember that the core majority of iOS4 is common to OS X - one
of the past Apple keynotes explains the details - I don't remember
which keynote though.
