>>Funny that the lowest point in Mac sales also is around when the iPod phenomenon started to take root. The next 12 months will IMO define a clearer direction for mac sales with the iPod awareness firmly established and Intel transition complete.<<

Actually, I think that correlation is the strongest evidence that there is a halo effect. As the iPod became more popular, Mac sales increased dramatically. Naturally, there would be a lag between iPod and Mac purchases by any individual, so the Mac sales trend should follow the iPod trend.
