Macs: The Low Price Leader?No, but it's getting harder to tell. Ed Moltzen looks at Apple's 'eye-popping' price cuts over the last two years: "This begins to provide a glimpse at how Apple has begun to disrupt the desktop space. It also begins to explain how, after years of tepid growth, Apple is now seeing its U.S. desktop business grow by more than 15 percent, while Dell's desktop business in the U.S. is growing by a little more than 6 percent." With Apple's big desktop machines still due to move to Intel chips, and the rest of the Mac family already a half year into their current price/performance lineup, look for some more moves soon. Not to be outdone, Dell is looking to go for the upscale retail buyer as well. Posted by Joe Caponi at 08:06 AM, July 27, 2006 This is a public forum.
