Apple Sales Booming? News to me
"Bigger Target as Sales Boom"? HUH? I never heard of such a thing! I thought Mac's were on the bottom of the totem pole when it comes to market share. Is Somebody smoking funny cigarettes?

In relation to Windows machines, Macs have a small market share (currently at about 5%, though it is slowly going up). That's not the point, though. Apple is selling more computers now than ever in its history, and it will probably sell more now that they've switched to Intel. This WILL surely be an invitation for virus writers to target the Mac.

Nope. A new Mac Mini and an Ipod HiFi? Don't think these will help either.

Nope. What a disappointment. I was hoping for something truly new and exciting... oh well.
