Quote:
Apple just announced its Q1 2012 results with $11.6 billion in profit from $39.2 billion revenue — a huge increase from the $5.99 billion profit and $24.67 billion revenue reported in Q1 2011. It didn't quite hit the same level as Apple's record-breaking previous quarter, but that had the added benefit of a gift-giving holiday season. As usual, this is a record quarter for the company. Cue the surprise.
35.1 million iPhones were sold in this quarter alone — an 88 percent increase over the 18.65 million sold in Q2 2011 and almost equal to the 37.04 million sold during just last quarter. Apple also sold 11.8 million iPads, which 151 percent more year-over-year but down 4 million from the 15.43 million sold during the holiday quarter. Macs stayed largely consistent, up 7 percent to 4 million (and only slightly off Q1's reported 5.3 million in sales). iPods once again were in decline, 15 percent to 7.7 million units sold.
Oh, and Apple's cash on balance sheet? $110 billion — $12.4 billion more than last quarter.

That's a hell of a lot of "iSheep"....right haters?
I only own one fucking share of Apple stock. Which was a gag gift from an ex girlfriend a few years ago. So I have no horse in this race. But it's fucking astonishing that they just keep printing money.
And the stock is only going to climb.... in 2012. All we've seen so far is the new iPad. Still on deck...
