If they only...
... sell 410,9999 will that be classed as a loss?
Of course it will...
...by all those highly-paid analysts (guessers, to you & me) who will use it to predict the total collapse of Apple, Western Democracy and the arrival of the four horsemen of the apocalypse.
This will of course, be accompanied by cackles of glee from those whose sole raison d'etre appears to be to heap invective upon Apple & Mac users - that is, when they're not cleaning the flecks of spittle from their screens, or mopping up the dribble from their keyboards...
People really must have more money than sense.
Because it's still a luxury item isn't it? Compared to a cheaper priced netbook that is.
Title
You could say that about any apple product, except perhaps some of the cheaper ipod family. And apple seem to sell a good few laptops/computers, don't they?
Do all people drive a bottom of the range car? Equally, they do the same basic job, drive you to where you are going.
So, what exactly is your point.

420,000 people is not most people in the US, and as they sell in other countries as well, it will be less than that within the US.
RE: How can iPhans afford all these goodies in a single year?
While some people can afford to buy everything apple release most people will have bought one device or the other based on what they needed. Also, what do you mean by vapourware Lion? It's only just been announced, maybe you should look up the definition of vapourware.
Reality check
Most people in the world AREN'T in the US...
