People, people, people! The reason that sales were down in $$$ and up in units and up in margin is because of the lost imaging sales. If you notice, the upwards of $200 million Apple was clearing in revenue from printers and monitors has grossly dropped. Apple's printer line is just a couple of older, high-end machines now. I would not be surprised if this in a big part of the numbers not adding up.

"Revenues for the quarter were $1.4 billion, down from $1.6 billion in the prior year quarter. International sales accounted for 50 percent of total revenues. Unit shipments were 650,000, an 8 percent increase from the prior year quarter. Gross margins for the quarter were 25 percent, up from 19 percent in the prior year quarter." Worth noting is that 25% of 1.4 billion is $450 million gross profit vs. last year's 19% of 1.6 billion, which is $304 million gross profit. There is no way that these numbers can be interpreted as bad. Still sippin' HerbVic
