The only thing that concerns me is that while laptop sales have more than doubled in the last two years, desktop sales have been stagnant. You could say that laptops are where the industry is moving or something to that effect, but they're not going away like some believed they would. Apple is just not connecting with those customers the way they're connecting with those on the laptop side.
Quality differences are much more apparent in a laptop than in a desktop, so Apple's advantages work better with laptops.

Apple's advantages work better with laptops because the features people expect in a laptop are pretty universal. When it comes to the desktops, what Apple offers and what a desktop users expect are two completely different animals.
