I don’t think they have lowered their margins much if at all on their computers, which have also been improving in sales.

Apple has historically maintained approximately a 30% margin target on its products.

If it does, then Linux going from 0.9% to 1.2% over the same time is a tsunami, and Win 7 going from 0% to 20% is absolutely earth-shattering!
