Margin Call

Continuing on the Apple margin kick, this is arguably the craziest thing: as Horace Dediu points out, Apple’s operating margin was so high last quarter that it surpassed the margin of both Google and Microsoft.

As a reminder, Apple is (mainly) a hardware company while Google is (mainly) an advertising company and Microsoft is (mainly) a software company. That is not supposed to happen.
