From an article on the NYSE broadtape this morning:
One reason for that level of bullishness is that, even as Apple looks to flashy new products for growth, it's seeing a resurgence of interest in one of its earliest, the Macintosh computer.
Sales of the venerable product line rose even faster than that of the iPod during the quarter ended in September, climbing 37% to $2.21 billion. Taken together, Apple's laptops and desktop unit sales are growing more than four
times faster than the global PC market as a whole and have Apple closing in on third place in the U.S. PC market.
While iPod sales contribute nearly 40% of Apple's revenue, Mac sales still kick in more than half, which means the product's renewed vigor is goosing Apple's sales and bottom line.
