As you've no doubt seen, Apple shipped a record number of Macs in its fourth quarter, which, aside from the education buying season, is often a slow one for Mac sales. By all accounts, the move to Intel processors is the deciding factor, with other reports showing that increasing numbers of buyers are considering Macs because they have Intel chips and, thus, a perceived compatibility with the rest of the personal computing world. The demand is driven by notebook sales, which hit 1 million in that quarter with a U.S. market share estimated at 12 percent...and there's no particular suggestion that notebook sales are slowing going into the holiday season. (I'm gonna get me one, for instance.)
