I was looking at the CompUSA sale paper this weekend.

Comparing what seemed to me to be similarly powered computers from Apple and IBM, the Apple computer was approximately $600 more. And, the IBM came with a bunch of Lotus software.

I also am concerned that many corporations are not buying Macs any more. I think this has a two fold affect. First, the obvious loss of revenue. Secondly, and less obviously, I think that there is a tendency to buy the same PC at home that one has in the office. To "share" software, and to do work at home.

The final proof is in the earnings.
