He upgraded his expectations for Mac sales, saying that as many as 2.5 million may have been shipped during the quarter ending June.
He also estimated that sales may see growth of 26 per cent over the year, far in excess of the industry average which is expected to come in at around 11.5 per cent to 12 per cent.
