"500,000 iBOOKs" , good find Mark but what is a "Fiscal Calendar" Year ? A earlier news item on Alpha Tops' rev increase might have been the basis for Mr Gardner's iBOOK calculation which is: ==== " 7/29 - In a recently published report, analyst Richard Gardner of Salomon Smith Barney said Apple is hoping to ship 500,000 iBooks in its fiscal calender year 2000, which begins in October. This is less than a third of the number of iMacs Apple has sold during the same period (fiscal calender year 1999). " ==== Alpha Top's news was 1st posted here . On the RB Thread it was explored and I think we estimated it was 500,000 by 1999 cal. yr. end assuming a unit rev of $1,000 to Alpha Top. It is a rough estimate only. Now put down the Alka Seltzer .
