Apple, is thy pseudonym Stimulus?

A little strange, but a good news! Integrated circuits sales has raised worldwide by 16% last quarter. This is the biggest quarter-on-quarter growth since the second quarter of 1984. More particularly DSP unit shipment has increased by 40% QoQ. One probable reason that I can think off is, in the last one quarter both Apple iPhone 3G(S) and Palm Pre were introduced. And with the reduced price line, both have been selling like hot cakes. On the hindsight, in January of 1984 Apple Macintosh was introduced. And it sold like hot cake. A probable reason for the previous growth record. Apple, is thy pseudonym Stimulus?
