OS X may result in some pent up demand being released, ... I think it will become one of the landmark operating systems of our industry when it is released next year.
If they were all worked out, we'd be having a different conversation today,
It's high time we officially recognized it with this promotion,
You could have a negative view of having 4 or 5 percent share, but one of the positives is that you don't really have to care what the rest of the market is like. It's like being on the bottom of the ocean -- it doesn't really matter what the weather on the top is like.

Our transition to Intel processors is going very well, and our music business just experienced another quarter of outstanding growth.
Whatever you do, you must never let the voice in your head control the brain in your heart.
