Apple does $43 billion in revenue, with $8 billion in profit - a respectable 19% margin.

There you go again...comparing the wrong numbers. Using NINE months of Apple's figures compared to a whole year of the other companies'! You've also understated Apple's profits by 1.7 Billion dollars. That's ridiculous. And dishonest.

Apple, using their usually conservative guidance, will most likely produce $62 billion in revenues for the fiscal year, not $43 billion, and weigh in with approximately $14.25 Billion in profits... or ~23% margin... for 2010 which ends in just 10 days of so.

Sword, you are such a fraud!

Microsoft's information

Google's information

Apple's information

Latest complete year information. YOU sir, are a liar, a shill, a fraud, and shyster. The information I showed is accurate as published, and even your cooked results STILL show my claim to be true - Apple has a LOWER margin than Microsoft or Google.

Yes or no: Apple has a lower profit margin than Microsoft and Google.

That's ridiculous. And dishonest.

Says the lying shyster who makes up his own statements and words for other's mouths and ignores anything that shines the light on his lies...

Answer Sword, let's see if you can swallow the crap you've been spewing: does Apple have a lower margin than Microsoft and Google? Simple question, if you cannot answer it we KNOW you're a shill of the first order...

Well, I see that nothing has changed lately. You’re still beating the snot out of the Microsoft guys. I guess they like it.
