Or graphics algorithms tailored to many cpu cores instead of just gpus. Or have the Mac platform interoperate with their mobiles better, again.

Graphics algorithms for what? Mac is still such a small market share that third party developers won’t take advantage of any weird architectural advantages. Sony tried and failed to pull this off with the PS3’s Cell processor, which was ironically PowerPC-based.

FCP, Adobe, etc. Apple has enough market power, cash, and know how to pull some combos and killer features off.
