Buoyed by a rise in sales from a year ago, Apple Computer posted fourth-quarter earnings that narrowly topped expectations.

The Mac maker posted a net income of $44 million, or 12 cents per share, on revenue of $1.7 billion, for the three months ended Sept. 27. That compares with a net loss of $45 million, or 13 cents per share, on revenue of $1.4 billion in the same quarter a year ago.

Congratulations! Just hope that whole Rush Limbaugh thing won't hurt Apple too much.

Steve Jobs hates Rush, but Rush still uses a Mac and gives them free commercial time.

The new G5 is awesome and the next release of Mac OS X, 10.3 looks great. I am sure Expose will be copied by the Linux distros and Microsoft soon enough. Its such a great idea, I am surprised no one thought of it before.

It will be real hard for me to swap my Dual G4/500 for a Dual G5/2Ghz. That old Mac still seems fast even compared to my home built Shuttle SG51 2.2Ghz. It handles the 10 Meg each photos from my Canon EOS 10D in Photoshop with no problems. I might just wait for the Dual 3Ghz G5 that should be out next spring/summer.
