Actually, if Apple were to stop selling MacBooks next year it could be the downfall.

How do you think that the iPhone & iPad ecosystem is sustained? Through developers (most of whom are) using MacBooks.

They have to port XCode to Windows, which means they don't get to have the lock-in they have now. If there's any flop for the iPhone for 2-3 years, the cost to jump ship isn't that high anymore.
