<<Though company officials wouldn't comment on the profit outlook, people familiar with the situation said that Apple executives have been privately confiding to resellers and others that the company expects it can be profitable for the fiscal year. Mr. Anderson wouldn't comment on that possibility.>>
Gee, he wasn't so shy a week ago.
Meanwhile, I'm listening to a replay of ZDNN's MacWorld RealAudio and James Staten is sooo pessimistic, saying that every retailer he talked to said that they were selling non-G3s well until the G3s came out and then those sales dropped to zero. Guess he needs to either get different sources or start paying more attention to the mail order houses, education channels, etc. --Oh, this is getting even better, Staten saying, "Well, we know they won't get back to breakeven this quarter, what with the inventory problem." Sweet, sweet, sweet.
It's been a pretty good day,
