I don’t see anything significant happening to Apple imo. I mean, there was likely a layout of what things to release as well as Jony Ive (being one of Apple’s core designers) having a vision for Apple. Hell, he helped with some of the best products like the G4, 2007 iPhone, and first iPod!

Also, iOS, MacOS, and the iPad were all starting to mature. The skeuomorphic design was fading away into something more “modern”. I do see silicon Mac’s releasing sooner as well as Vision Pro releasing earlier, but the first few iterations being limited and restricted.

My theory is that the product line would’ve been more minimal, and Apple wouldn’t be the highest market cap company. Also the 699 Mac Pro wheels wouldn’t exist.

But who knows, none of us would really know.
