Maybe not the most informative title on what is inside, but I couldn't come up with any better. Sorry!
Anyway, to the thread.
I can't really see how a serious analyst can predict Apple to take over the electronics market.
I was planning to go through their financial reports, but I found out some guy already had. Lucky me. http://www.systemshootouts.org/
The main point of the thread is the numbers, not my feeling really.
Apple Ipod sales in 2007:
Roughly 52M
This equals pretty much 78% of the handheld music division.
That's pretty awesome.
Apple Iphone sales over last 12 months (since launch):
Roughly 5.5M
Nokia sold 440M in 2007. They say this is 40%. Also, the last 12 months should be fairly equal to 2007.
So Iphone has roughly 1-1.5% market share in the mobile phone market.
Mac sales:
7764K, or 7.76M in 2007.
The overall PC sales are roughly 266M for 2007
This means that Apple has roughly 2.9% market share.
Apple Itunes sales:
Itunes sold roughly 2B songs/movies in 2007.
No idea about the market share.
