This is why Phil Schiller works in marketing at Apple.
Ignore the real numbers and believe my numbers says Phil.

Frankly, his figures are correct. The Motley Fool did not just use Schiller's data to publish this. Are you familiar with the Sarbanes Oxley Law of 2002? It requires officers of publicly traded companies to tell the truth. If they don't they can be personally fined up to $20 million and imprisoned for up to 20 years. Phil Schiller was talking officially in Apple's name and what he said would come under SOX. His statistics are correct. Your numbers are incorrect. What you are talking about are quarterly sales numbers, his numbers are INSTALLED BASE. Two different numbers. Apple Macs have a longer usable life than the vast majority of other PCs. . . it's why they have a much higher resale value than Windows PCs of the same age.
