Bill "some have said near to .30 since this quarter reflects the best sales season" ?? Traditionally this is AAPL's slowest 'sales' Quarter. Regards, Dennis

What are you talking about??? Q2 (ends March) has historically been Apple's worst quarter. Sales are always down from Q1 to Q2 (might not happen this year though, as Apple didn't have a model aimed at Xmas shoppers). Profits are always lowest in Q2. If they can have a profitable Q2 they should be on track for 4 profitable quarters this year.

"Electric; They may well be a bit better than that .20, some have said near to .30 since this quarter reflects the best sales season and does not have the retsructure costs of the one before it."

So even Bill thinks that we will beat the estimate by a huge margin?! What is this world coming to?

"since this quarter reflects the best sales season and does not have the retsructure costs of the one before it."

Are we following the same stock? Wake up Bill. Historically Q2 has been Apple's weakest quarter. We should see sequential growth in Q3 and Q4. I believe earnings should beat the estimate....but let's keep the facts straight okay?
