Notes: 1. Figures for Apple are actual unit shipments for the periods, obtained from images.apple.com apple.com apple.com 2. Figures for all other manufacturers are "preliminary estimates" from IDC: idc.com (1/11/2012) An impressive quarter indeed, and Macs weren't even the most impressive part of it for Apple. |
