Interesting finding on expenditure in US (IT related)

[CuRRent MooD:] Fine

[CuRRent Song:] None

[Last FooD/BeveRage:] Milo

From Ars Technica:

Apple nabs 91% of "premium" computer revenue in June

"Apple may have less than 10 percent of the US computer market in terms of unit sales, but it's still grabbing a much larger percentage of US computer revenue, according to the latest numbers from NPD."

"For the month of June, slightly more than 9 out of every 10 dollars spent on a computer over $1,000 went to Apple."

Anyway these figures are based on USD. Come to think, Apple systems are never cheap so...how do they grab the lower half anyway??? They are not cheap, they can only grab that section of the market. True, this article is talking more about their premium product and quality. I wouldn't want to start a war of Apple VS Microsoft, but to me its always comparing Apples to Oranges.

If Apple was the one which start off brightly and business-centric like Microsoft, do you think we will be complaining about Microsoft's rubbish today? I believe Apple will fall in the same fate like Microsoft.
