Soaring sales, great products and strong retail performance helps maintain Apple's successBy Gadjo Cardenas Sevilla
It was a big news week for Apple and the buzz was not product related at all. An unexpected health leave letter from CEO Steve Jobs preceded the first quarter results conference call where Apple posted record revenue of $26.74 billion and record net quarterly profit of $6 billion.
Following that, the announcement of 10th billion app was downloaded in the UK. Heading into Macworld which is happening in San Francisco this week, we're expecting more exciting news and revelations. Finally, we celebrate the Macintosh as it hits its 27-year milestone.
