I wrote something similar back on July 25th after conference call with investors:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"The reality is that ... the bulk of Apple’s growth is from traditional sales of Macintosh computers. Of the ... $1B in growth year-over-year ... at least two thirds comes from growth in sales of desktops and laptops."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://petersmagnusson.com/2007/07/25/iphone-sales-disappoint-now-dont-forget-the-mac/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="http://petersmagnusson.com/2007/07/25/iphone-sales-disappoint-now-dont-forget-the-mac/"&gt;http://petersmagnusson.com/...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Peter S Magnusson</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 17 Sep 2007 18:27:38 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Jobs doesn&amp;#8217;t care about selling Macs</title><link>http://www.mathewingram.com/work/2007/09/16/jobs-doesnt-care-about-selling-macs/#comment-1315881</link><description>&lt;p&gt;It would be curious if this was intentional. From a pure "muscles" point of view, grabbing a few percentage points more of desktop/laptop market share would be huge for Apple, and would help all their efforts.  It's not as if they're not doing good desktop/laptop products, they just don't have a good channel strategy. There are so many people I meet who would consider buying a Mac, but besides the TV ads, there's not much reaching-out going on.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Peter S Magnusson</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 17 Sep 2007 18:22:12 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
