Apple made big news this week, first with a record-setting quarterly result, and then with the release of new Mac hardware. Jim Dalrymple helps us make sense of it all, starting with the best Mac sales quarter ever, and how that reflects on the strategies Apple has been pursuing. Jim names his favorite new product out of the mix (not what you might think), reviews the changes to the iMac, Mac mini and MacBook, and discusses his recent conversation with Apple’s Phil Schiller about Apple’s product philosophy. Jim also talks about the rapid development of his web site, The Loop, including some of his new team members and how current technology is making it possible.
