Computer Retail Week Names iMac Hottest Desktop System of the Year.
>CUPERTINO, Calif., Nov. 16 /PRNewswire/ -- Apple Computer, Inc.'s (Nasdaq: AAPL - news) iMac was named the hottest desktop computer of 1998 today by Computer Retail Week (CRW), the leading weekly retail channel publication. In August and September, CRW polled approximately 200 front-line retail sales people to select the most popular products of the year in five categories: desktop computers, mobile computing, software, peripherals and accessories.
''iMac was far and away the leading desktop chosen by our sales associate readership, the key influencers in retail stores,'' said Mark Harrington, CRW's editor. ''The win is especially impressive considering iMac has only been available to consumers since mid-August. It's a real tribute to Apple's efforts.''<
