Zaky’s 2010: The Year Apple Enters a New Golden Age:
“To get an idea of how deeply Apple continues to penetrate the market, last year the company produced 50% less in sales and over 71% less in earnings than it will this year. That means the 2010 Apple is nearly 50% larger than the Apple of 2009 – almost an entirely different company. If this growth continues into 2011, Apple will surpass Exxon (XOM) to become the largest corporation in America.”
There are a lot of numbers in the article. Pretty interesting though. Especially when you consider “Microsoft spent seven times as much as Apple on R&D over the past four years” (via Daring Fireball). One has to wonder how Apple does so much with so little.
