Mac veterans abound I recently mailed a package from a "mail them for you" kind of chain store, very high traffic area, NYC. I could not believe it when I first saw it but sure enough -- a Mac Plus was still in use there. I think for Apple there could be "before and after iPod." I'd love to see a major "hand held" push on their part, besides "just" music.

<<Nearly a third (29 per cent) of Macworld Online voters bought their first Mac between 1984 and 1990, the latest Macworld Online poll>> Don Doesn't sound very scientific to me. I think the ipod numbers will be interesting for the present quarter as will the number of itunes actually sold during the holiday season since this is when alot of music is sold. But it doesn't sound like this is all that is selling well for apple. I just read somewhere that they have already sold a half million of their g5 systems. As long as the other systems are selling as expected(and we know that at least the ibooks were selling well in japan for a short period of time), apple should have a decent quarter when all is said and done. Interesting that the share price doesn't reflect that. If apple drops a couple more points, I might be tempted to increasing my position in it. Neal
