Bill and everyone, I agree that the rest of Asia will not have much impact on iMac sales, but $10 Big Macs notwithstanding, sales will be very good in Japan. The computer is selling for less than $1299 US in Japan. And it is a country of super savers. I think they can afford this little beauty, and will want it for all the reasons Pravin proffers.

Phil, looks like the CompUSA ASWAS's are going to number 215 soon.

This is significant. This should really push sales up! I think apple needs to start investigating the possibility of investing in another production plant to keep up. Things are looking good! :)

If iMac sales do really good for them, perhaps they will change their name to MacUSA!
