iPad Outsells Mac:
Dan Frommer:
During the June quarter, Apple sold 9.2 million iPads for $6 billion in revenue. It also sold 3.9 million Macs for $5.1 billion in revenue.
Apple even admitted that some of the iPad's success was at the Mac's expense: 'We do believe that some customers chose to purchase an iPad instead of a new Mac during the quarter,' Apple COO Tim Cook said on the company's earnings call, 'but we also believe that even more customers chose to purchase an iPad over a Windows PC.'
This is astounding.
