Convincing yourself Apple's doomed 


Writing for the Harvard Business Review, Juan Pablo Vazquez Sampere  warns that we shouldn't be dazzled by Apple's quarterly report.  No, no. Sure. That makes sense. No reason to be dazzled by the fact that it's a record quarter... for every company ever in the history of forever.





Apple just defied a bunch of theories about business

Apple's growth scorecard


The PC market is more than 30 years old. In this mature market the Mac has been outgrowing the Windows platform for 34 out of the last 35 quarters.





Apple will eventually devour the enterprise too

Apple is still a startup 


Apple is now the world's most valuable company, with a stock market valuation of some $700 billion, and nearly $180 billion in cash on hand. The company's online iTunes store counts a staggering 800 million active users.

Tim Cook, Steve Jobs' down-to-earth successor as CEO, couldn't help himself on the earnings call, describing the quarter as "historic" and his company's performance—selling on average 34,000 iPhones an hour, 24/7—as "hard to comprehend."

What's most astonishing, given those numbers, is that Apple is far less ubiquitous than you might think. It has plenty of room to grow. Indeed, it may only be getting started.
