Sales of Macs are slowing…

No they're not; Apple's selling more Macs than ever before and pretty consistently more each quarter than the previous (YOY).

(Completely unrelated: Lyons looks like John Hodgman in that picture.)

That's debatable. Market share is flat: http://m.industry.bnet.com/technology/10008371/huh-no-iphone...

Are you talking about Mac sales of the past number of years or just the past year? I don't think they've really increased all that much in the past few quarters.

It is likely that they have saturated their market. Apple has 90% market share in PCs > $1000. http://www.macdailynews.com/index.php/weblog/comments/apple_...

In both of Apple's last two quarters, Mac sales were up 33% year over year; 17% the quarter before and 4% the quarter before that. I'm not sure what numbers were like going back past a year.
