How abut Apple Netbooks
A continuing discussion over the past days was whether the global economic situation would affect the sales numbers of Apple. Sales in education and the professional sector fell during March. Even with the launch of a completely revamped line of Mac desktops, the quarter was an overall decline in market share. It was not all bad for Apple, sales of iPod (including iPod Touch) have been sufficient to offset most of the sales of Mac
If the results for themselves and are nice, the most interesting section of the quarterly review, is the question and answer section. The answers, with some script, gave the opportunity to listen to executives talk about the results of Apple and the future plans.
One of the most notable during this debate was the view of Apple on the Netbook market. Tim Cook took the floor and said that netbooks are not a product with a user experience good enough to put the Apple brand, and if they find a good way to create an innovative product, they will. The same was said before you take the iPod with video.
Overall, the results have been very positive for a company that sells “luxury” given the current economic climate. We hope that in future, Apple continue to succeed and this is the last quarter that Apple lost market share.
