>> The only other variable is misc hardware (printers, monitors, etc; which must have low margins) and high margin software, but I think all software goes through Claris ... how do Claris's numbers get put into AAPL's ?<< The margin and average unit cost etc in Apple's SEC report already includes sales of peripherals and software (S&P).
