    They might grow fast than PC's, but the volume of PC's sold owns the MACs in every way.

    @forzasteel - You miss the point. Mac sales have grown faster than PC sales for 19 straight quarters. A five percent increase one quarter is more in volume than a five percent increase the previous quarter. Eventually that gets pretty big. One sign of this is that Apple is the second highest capitalized company in the world behind only Exxon and more than Microsoft. More than 50% of all college students use Macs. Macs tie into iPods, iPads and iPhones. Growth is everywhere.
