Haha! Yes indeed-y! The best innovation Apple made was to give us the Unix shell from 1969 seamlessly built into MacOS.

They made the Unix shell useful for those without a technical background or not choosing to become one. The whole iPod, music store, cloud infrastructure with the Apple Store, iPhone, iPad was a huge innovatio. Breaking the carrier’s hold on phone ownership was a tremendous move forward for consumers. One could list six or seven major innovations one could tie to Apple that today we take for granted.
