I would prefer a comparison to pre- Q4Y20 (release of the M1 mac and the surge of companies replacing Intel macs) and pre- Q2Y20 (start of COVID and WFH mandates). or even Q3Y22 when they come out with the M2. If you trend it against those periods, how much has changed? Is it far below 2019? Companies were rushing to replace all Intel macs after the M2 (when it supported dual monitors), and are now falling into more of the standard 2-3 year upgrade cycle. If you take out those big sales spikes, do the sales look as bad? Or do they fall more in-line with the PC sales slumps?
