Apple Takes a Hit

Apple has managed to keep their financial growth rates; this is primarily thanks to the amount of sales that they have had on their Apple laptops including the Mac Book Pro and Mac air and Desktops. Even in the current financial environment Apple has managed to keep growing. Apple has been able to draw in over $10 billion in revenues. Apple shows a big jump from last quarter’s $7.9 billion, Apple also shows an increase over last year’s holiday quarter, when it had $9.6 billion. Consumers are finding Apple laptops to be very appealing and user friendly, this fact has contributed to the company’s increase in sales over the last quarter. Consumers are also finding Apple desktops including the iMac and Mac Pro to be very appealing and user friendly, when you add accessories like the IPod and IPhone it’s no wonder that Apple is doing well in sales. Mac sales have however fallen when compared to past years. Sales dropped by about 90,000 compared to the previous quarter. Up to date Apple has sold over 2.5 million desktops and laptops. When we look at the conditions of the current financial situation one would think that the first things that consumers would cut back on would be high end electronics like those from Apple but that hasn’t been the case for the company. In spite of current conditions Apple is doing a good job of maintaining its revenues. Apple also offers tech support to its consumers they have various computer repair shops that customers can seek when having problems with their machines. Apple has computer repair shops in areas like Alexandria, Washington DC, Bethesda, Fairfax, Arlington, Tyson’s Corner and Springfield.

Give me some specific names for the models they have like iMac, macbook pro, etc. Also, drop some links to the local stores at the end of this article like you did at the end of the best buy story. Apple offers MacBook repairs in Arlington, MacBook repairs in Vienna, and many other locations.
