I would use Yahoo or Bing or any other search engine. Nothing would
change if Google went away tomorrow.
Blackberries and Android wouldn't even exist if Apple hadn't created the
first iPhone. Same with tablets... look how many people tried tablets
before Apple, and they all failed.
I purchased a Macbook for my daughter headed to college 5 years ago. She
used that laptop literally every day, for over 5 years. She graduated
with two Bachelor's degrees... using that same laptop. Every paper,
thousands of emails, etc... and she has never had a single issue... no
viruses, no hardware issues, no software issues. Never a single issue.
No OS reload, no malware scanners, nothing. It just works. Just like all
the rest of Apple's products... they just work.

Apple is gone. People buy Blackberries and Android. Tablets probably
won't exist. Mp3 players would probably have come to fruition without
them. What else do they have?

At least Apple makes products... products that literally changed
the computing world, the phone world, the retail world, created
apps, and the music world. Google created a search engine
(actually copying Yahoo, Webcrawler, Altavista and several others
at the time). They aren't a "product". They don't "sell" anything.
They are a webpage, just like Facebook.
Imagine your life without Google or Facebook. NOTHING CHANGES.
Yes, they built a better mousetrap using their intelligence and
hard work... but they aren't "inventors". They didn't create
anything new or groundbreaking.

Google is making themselves the curator of access to the world's
information and communications. When you consider the value of
those, it's not just the most valuable company in matters of
money. The founders had incredible foresight in addition to their
intelligence and hard work.

Literally, a one page website for a company that is less than
19 years old is now the most valuable company in the world. :(
