Intelbook? I would keep all of the original names. But really, the new

Like the Power(pc)Book?
To think of it, the "box" scheme makes no sense anymore.
the Macbook and the Macbook pro should stay there. The air has to be the
new Macbook or iBook or it has to go. The mac mini has no reason there
at all, the iMac should be the lower end machine. THe mac pro should be
the high end machine and server. They should cut out the Xserve.
The Mac Mini is the low cost entry platform for those switching from
other platforms. They're used to sub-$1000 computers, and already have a
monitor, keyboard and mouse.
The Xserve is for those running server farms, not for individual users
I have a feeling of something. Apple is as bad as it was before steve
came back. They have too many product lines, minimizing it's chances of
getting in the cash. One new CEO will rise up and re-innovate the
company and remove the company's many product lines like it had 13 years
ago.
I see the following 3 product lines:
General Macintosh computers.
Server Macintosh computers.
Mobile products.
General Macintosh computers has the following 2 sub-lines:
Professional (MacPro & MacBookPro)
Consumer (Mac Mini, iMac, & MacBook)
Of course, consumers can buy from the Professional line also.
Server Macintosh computers has the Xserve line & the Mac Mini Server
Mobile Products covers iPod, iPad, and iPhone
If the above minimizes "getting in the cash", then how come Apple is now
the second largest company in the WORLD, in terms of capitalization?
Only Exxon-Mobil has more cash than Apple.
