Forbes: Apple "Big Winner" in Sales

filed under Apple

Forbes reports on a Credit Suisse First Boston analysis of year-over-year computer sales growth for May. Apple is the big winner with 79% growth overall and 94% growth in the retail channel. In comparison, overall PC hardware growth was only 6% year-over-year for May.

Note that only retail and distribution were considered, so a company like Dell that sells direct to consumers was not included in this analysis.
