IBM

Will do just fine with their Power line of chips. The Playstation 2 has sold 100 million units, I bet Playstation 3 sells more. Apple was selling about 4 million Macs a year, even if they had been all dual processor models that's only 8 million chips a year. Now toss in XBOX 2, Nintendo's up coming consoles, IBM's own servers and workstations and they have themselves a huge market. If Cell takes off as they expect, probably even larger.
Apple maybe lucky to be around in two years, they certainly won't be gaining any market share with deadend boxes to sell. In a year they'll be luck if they can give their PPC Macs away.
