Earnings rumors from Mac the Knife:

Apple bigwigs will be laughing out of the other side of their mouths when they announce a profit for the second quarter in a row. According to the scattered Knife loyalists still handing out fresh, clean towels in the executive throne room, insiders are predicting a windfall in the $80 million to $100 million range.

Sorry about responding to a post two days old but I'm a bit behind. Anyway I have two points.

First off, the All-In-One is a great machine at an outstanding price but I don't agree with offering it solely to the education market. I think lots of people would love this simple, powerfull, yet complete device for home or office use.

Secondly as far as Virtual PC goes I am not sure about the States but up here in Canada that package does exist, or at least the offer does. If anyone buys any PowerPC through Education chanels between now and mid summer (All-in-One included) you can send in a coupon for either 32 megs of RAM or VirtualPC. There is a third part to the offer but I can't remeber it now. I am using this opportunity to get myself a G3-266 desktop with VirtualPC. I figure I'd rather wait a bit and expand the ram in a bigger chunck than 32. It is a great offer and the guys at the campus computer store seem very comfortable selling Macs as opposed to PC's. I think it would also be a great promotion to the US education market too. Anyone know if an equivalent offer exists in the States?

We shall prevail!
