The extremely important difference is that now Apple has some of the best CPUs in the world.
Apple CPUs are good except most of server workloads benefit more from 128+ core monsters and not just fewer better cores.
MacOS is not a server OS either and actually maturing M* support in Linux will take years. And for inference Nvidia is years ahead of Apple.
So best Apple can hope for is some niche market.
