Seriously i dont think that Apple would be able to make sales like US , here in India people are tend to spend wisely..
and Apple products are just too pricey for an average Indian and compare it with the competetion with music phones and windows
Shashank: Maybe, the only reason why Apple Products are so pricey is because Apple Resellers keep huge profits in each product sold. I really like Dell in this aspect, their business model is direct to the consumer. No middle men!
@Shashank: Apple products are costly, but not the Mac. Just look at the software iLife suite that comes with the OSX. Its amazing and so is GarageBand. When you consider the bundle and the design of the Apple products, it really isn’t that costly…
Hope they dont close the shop like they did for their support center. They operated for a month in Bangalore and then left the place!!
I probably touched a raw nerve here. Sorry about that. But what do you think is the reason Apple does not sell inspite of its superior products ?
I listed the reasons
1. Higher cost
2. Pricier after-sale service
3. Lower maintainability / costlier upgrades.
These are the biggest reasons that turn the decision in favour of Windows computers, IMHO.
I have seen umpteen number of people who admire Apple, but buy a Compaq notebook instead of Apple. Why??
I just said what I observed. No offence meant
shadows: Yeah, Apple is having some serious marketing problems in India. Most computer users are so tied up to Windows, that they aren’t willing to try any other operating system. I totally agree with all the three points mentioned by you!

Thilak,
From Pune !!! The place with the highest PC penetration in India !
Well, maybe it sells well in Bangalore and Mangalore. I havent seen much Apple stuff in Mumbai or Pune (if we exclude iPods)
