Microsoft Surface Sales are out
Remember this comment from Microsoft on December 11:
"Microsoft cites “the disappointment of the new MacBook Pro” and its trade-in program for MacBooks for tempting people to switch to Surface. Again, Microsoft refuses to provide numbers but vaguely claims “our trade-in program for MacBooks was our best ever.”
they reported earnings yesterday and these are the numbers:

they reported earnings yesterday and these are the numbers:
Sales of Surface tablets and computers increased 11 percent to $223 million in the fiscal second quarter, Microsoft reported on Thursday. Meanwhile, phone sales plunged 76 percent, and devices as a whole dropped 35 percent to $1.4 billion in revenue.
Still, not all analysts were thrilled with the numbers. Patrick Moorhead, an analyst at Moor Insights & Strategy, said he was expecting closer to 25 percent growth in Surface sales and attributed the shortfall to constrained supply of the high-end Surface Studio and limited enhancements to other products in the family.
