how "relevant" is a single comment that you overhear in a computer store? An n of 1 is not a significant sample, and practically defines the term "irrelevant".

People here have been posting their local experiences all over the country. Put together the give us a picture of how the iMac is doing. I've posted my local data points. No ads, initial brisk sales, lack of interest from people at the cash register.

Put together with other people's testimonials we can get an early picture of how the iMac is doing. Pollsters should refrain from throwing away answers they don't like as you guys seem to be urging.

your bearishness has a very provocative and somewhat nasty tone.

Only when replying to people who are equally agressive. Go back and read my description of the conversation between two women. No commentary, nothing added. As bland as I could be. But a lot of people are annoyed by it, because its bearish.

Why don't you all ignore Alomex. I try to read through everything but enough of this crap. I don't have an infinite amount of time to read all the junk that people post.
