- 3.47 million Macs, “representing a new quarterly record and a 33 percent unit increase over the year-ago quarter.”
- 8.4 million iPhones, “representing 61 percent unit growth over the year-ago quarter.”
- 9.41 million iPods during the quarter, “representing an eight percent unit decline from the year-ago quarter.”
