>> I agree strongly that sales thru internet should pickup. It has to. $500,000 in 12 hr would mean just 200 orders of the average $2500 G3 desktop. In another word.. 16 orders per hour...1 order every 3.5 minutes. Okay, maybe I'm over analyzing these preliminary figures. In any case I think there is a lot of room for growth. The number released today doesn't reflect the true demand for online shopping yet. << Eric, a couple of people posted they couldn't get near the Apple web site on Monday. With 4.5 million hits, probably 95 percent or more of which were just curosity lookers, many of the true potential buyers were probably not involved, even if they knew about the store. Let's give it a few days for the volume to fall off. When it does, then let's see if the sales figures increase. It wouldn't surprise me if they do. Sam
