I once told people that I carried around in my billfold, where most people have pictures of their children, a seasonally-adjusted chart of the rate at which computer industry pundits were declaring the death of the Apple II. It's always been ridiculous. Let me be clear: When I started this company six years ago, there were just as many unfounded rumors about Apple's upcoming discontinuance of the Apple II line as there are today. Here's why we've never believed these rumors and why you shouldn't either: • Apple has sold over 5 million Apple lis (well over half of them since the Macintosh was introduced, incidentally) and continues to sell about half a billion dollars worth of them each year. Public companies like Apple don't just stop selling profitable products, product lines this large, or brand names as well known as this one.
