Orion -

Don't forget that any "halo effect" is delayed. The person who buys an iPod doesn't immediately turn around and buy a Mac.

I'm wondering if your numbers are correct about all the growth being from Europe. I'm looking at the report now.

CPU unit sales in the Americas (which means almost all U.S.) are given as 476 thousand, up from 378 thousand in Q1 of '04. European CPU unit sales were up by 80 thousand, from 240 to 320.

Or are you talking about the quarterly sequential change? There the difference in Europe is spectacular. But again, given the fact that the halo effect would be delayed, I don't see how you can draw any negative conclusions about its existence from this data.
