The article title seems to confuse everybody, especially if you read the comments.

* Apple has 91% of _revenue_ when > $1000 is being spent * They only have 7% of the market

The way I read this: there's a ton of cheap machines out there, and they ain't Macs. (Duh.)

Is it me, or does it seem like Microsoft is still not avoiding becoming the "budget" system? I can't see this working out in the long term, if they want to continue to avoid being a commodity. (You know, charging lots of $$ for upgrades.)

Something tells me the next year is going to be interesting.
