My biggest level of concern for Apple was revenue guidance for next quarter. I know margins are important to analysts that like to come up with unrealistic price targets and stuff, but I'd rather see Apple growing revenues with 36% margins than sacrificing growth at 40% margins. I think the revenues will be in line next quarter, but the earnings will beat on higher margins. I agree with all of your post, but I had to call this paragraph out because I think you are right on the money. I wouldn't expect any kind of major revenue beat for this quarter, and I hope the analysts figure that out. I expect apple to exceed their own guidance comfortably, but not spectacularly.
