Apple sells a lot of machines in the education market, which is where I've purchased the two machines I've owned. This market is also going to be the focus of Jobs' new marketing strategy. After all these years, I think it's still a sound strategy.

This market has been an utter and total failure. Why would it be any different now? You just can't argue with the facts. Educational users do not have the funds to make high volume, repeat business customers.

To be successful, Apple will have to penetrate the home computer market or the commercial systems market, extensively. I'd think they'd get it by now....
