Life is grand

You might be sick of Apple news but it is going to get increasingly hard to ignore. Die hard PC fans often critical of Apple computers need to take heed of today’s Apple quarter 4 report:

• 2,164,000 Macs sold. 400,000 more in Q4 than in any previous quarter.
• iPhone sales at 1.4 million.
• 10,200,000 iPod sales. Not canabalised by the iPhone but, incredibly, up by 17%.

And the fun thing is the heavily pushed “new” operating system upgrade, Leopard, is only about to be released. More sales. Also consider that the iPhone and iTouch run a stripped down but still obvious OS X. I don’t remember Windows Mobile doing very well. Or Vista for that matter.

All in all a small percentage of total computer sales but it is on the rise. I am so sick of PC users making fun of Apple and the Mac. I used to but I got converted and for the better.

Give it a few more years and we’ll see how funny Apple seems to the PC industry.
