Apple got the iphone last year, stepped up the playing field and everyone comes trying to copy them. The same will go for the ultra thin laptop. people have money brian, and as far as I am concerned we have been in a recession for the past 5 months.<BR/><BR/>The time capsule was nice but in no way is it even going to compare with the magnitude of the macbook air.<BR/><BR/>Save the best for last, and thats what Jobs did at Macworld with the laptop.If there was no new laptop, then I dont even want to know how much the stock would be down. This years macworld was crappy compared to the following 2 years, but this was the only device that semi saved apple from being beaten like a red headed step child.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5335628935796185398.post-19094760214309378242008-01-22T21:00:00.000-05:002008-01-22T21:00:00.000-05:00You bet I'm going to disagree with you. Don't get ...You bet I'm going to disagree with you. Don't get me wrong, computer sales are huge to Apple. And this year is the biggest and best year for Apple. With 44% increases of computer sales. <BR/>Lets examen that; last year they they updated both Operating System, causing people that don't have a mac, or have an out dated mac to buy a new one. They also updated the iMac and Mac Books. What also encourage the growth is good advertisement and the disaster with Vista.<BR/>So why do i think the MacBook Air will do so well? The Mac market is saturated. Those who bought a mac in the last two years will not buy another. Those who will buy a mac in the next year, most likely wont choose a the MacBook air, because the price point. Mac are generally in a higher bracket, and thats fine but with the are current slope into a "recession" money may be tighter. Therefore they will more likely buy a plain MacBook because it is cheaper, and has more power.<BR/><BR/>Of course what i thought was the coolest gadget, Time Capsule will not bring in the big dollar. But the deals with the entertainment industry might. But i don't know, from what i read, Apple only gets ten cents for each song sold.<BR/><BR/>I have no problem with the MacBook Air, it is defiantly innovated, thin and portable. But I'm a power user, give me the 5.5 pound MacBook pro any time over 3 pound MacBook Air.Brianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05540317405530685173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5335628935796185398.post-73607853728682161022008-01-22T20:27:00.000-05:002008-01-22T20:27:00.000-05:00If the macbook air was definitly the biggest thing...If the macbook air was definitly the biggest thing of this years macworld! Its the only real devise that is changing the game, and will able to bring in the dough for apple. The other products were good, but arent going to be nearly as huge as the super thin laptop will be. Go ahead and disagree but compare revenues in a few months and you will see.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
