Business Week Columnist Not Concerned About 1%

"Today's Wall Street Journal focuses on how according to the latest NPD figures, Mac sales in November as compared to November of last year are down by 1%, and thus rushes to ring the alarm bells: Apple is being dragged down by the recession."

The article presents an interesting perspective.  We'll have to see how it plays out, but one thing's for sure...  Entering the low-profit netbook market isn't going to make that big a dent in their sales.  The answer?  I don't know it and I'm not ashamed to admit it.  I think the upcoming Macworld San Francisco ought to set the tone for the next few months and give us a better idea of Apple's direction because right now, everyone's guessing and the theories range from plausible to ridiculous.
