Apple launches new MacBooks with blast at Vista

newmacbook.jpgApple claimed the failure of Vista is one of the main reasons why Mac sales are surging, as the company unveiled its new laptops.

Apple’s chief operating officer Tim Cook said the company has been selling Macs at two-to-three times the industry average.

And he pointed to Windows Vista as one of the reasons for Apple’s success. “I think it’s fair to say Vista hasn’t lived up to everything Microsoft hoped it would - and this has given us a door in,” Cook  told the audience at the launch of the new MacBooks.

Ironically, he also cited the availability of Windows on Macs as another reason for its success, although he couldn’t resist another dig at Microsoft. “Windows on an iMac - frankly this sends a shiver up my spine,” he said.
