WWDC rumors summary ... macosdaily.com Would a MacOS for Intel run current programs? What would this announcement do for the stock price ?! I'm really hoping for MacOS-Lite announcement including Casio, Sharp, etc. Very exciting times ... ** David

Linda, I should use the terms unit sales or box sales. When I use the term sales I mean the dollar value. In the trade we speak in terms of dollars. I am not sure if the unit sales are up or down. If they shifted to more expensive G3 stuff and the older stuff faded you could get lower unit sales, lower $ sales and larger profits simultaneously. I have not seen a unit sales breakdown as of now. Does it get released by Apple? We are not in disagreement, is is terminology.
