"We're on the bus and it's flying. Eric and Phil were exactly on target." Nah..my optimistic estimate was off by 9 cents. Sorry guys. I think I might be off on revenue. It is probably 1.4 bil rather than 1.45 bil. I think Apple may be intentionally saving the rev for Q4. Eric

I knew it would be good since I finally bought my G3 in June :-) Q4 is having to show the revenue growth now. Good luck with your 35s, I didn't get my AAQAHs today, and am (somewhat) hoping to see a little pressure on friday to get them at the price I want. Goetz.

Eric and Phil were exactly on target. Puleeezee.... Phil was predicting revenues of $1.55b just a month ago and earnings around 40% higher than those achieved. Eric was closer, his optimistic target $50mill above actual, and operating margins 0.5% above. Not at a bad show if you ask me but far from "exactly on target". For the record, I was also off, with revenues estimated at $1440-1480 mill and margins at 24.8% (same as previous quarter). Lastly Richard Habib was, as far as I remember, the only one here saying that revenues would fall quarter to next, as they did.
