And we’re not even talking about iPhones here, we’re talking about Macs. Due to a perfect storm that occurred with the introduction of new Macs and a slowdown in PC sales right before the introduction of Windows 7, Macs were the most popular computers sold in both desktop and laptop form, according to a CNet report from the NPD Group.

It seems that even in this economy, there’s no slowing Apple down. The company announced its quarterly earnings Monday, revealing that its net income rose 47 percent. The earnings, which were driven by record Mac computer and iPhone sales, sent Apple shares surging 7 percent in extended trading to an all-time high.
