Putting Apple's sales number into perspective?

Ok, that is not really possible, but I can try.

When I give presentations to groups on the iPad, I always talk to the magnitude of the shift that is underway. I do this just to try and put into context how insanely huge what it is that Apple is doing. Anyway, I updated a couple of the slides I use and thought I would share the images. Pretty amazing stuff, to say the least.

Here are Apple's sales by Product Category since the first quarter of 2009 (just around $10 billion) to the first quarter 2012 (over $46 billion). Enough said...

Then, just iPad unit sales. They have hit 50 million units sold in 20 months!
