> Apparently Mac sales are seeing a big growth spurt lately.
That's not really clear. Mac sales actually peaked during the pandemic, around 2022.
Apparently there was also some tariff fear-driven buying this year. Indeed, I purchased a new MacBook Pro earlier this year for that very reason.
If you compare, say, 2024 Mac revenue to 2014 Mac revenue, there was an increase of 25% over that period, but inflation increased even more over the same period. (Unfortunately, Apple no longer announces unit sales.)
