the iPod is still a smaller source of revenue than Macs
Nope. In the previous quarter, iPod generated $3.4 billion versus $2.4 billion for Macs. But the point remains that it's a huge chunk of revenue, and an important piece of the complete picture. Also, the Mac had 40% year-on-year revenue growth to iPod's 18%, possibly somewhat due to price cuts on iPod.
You could be completely forgiven for not noticing any difference between a PPC Mac and an Intel Mac at all
Except for the crazy speed improvements.
