I just saw this article on MacRumors.com :
Apple to Announce 4Q 2012 Earnings on October 25
Then I started to ask myself, “Isn’t there something else BIG that’s happening on that day?”. For Microsoft, there definitely is. They are scheduled to officially release their follow on to Windows 7; Windows 8.
Windows 8 Release Date: Launch Event Scheduled, Invitations sent
Makes me wonder if Apple scheduled that day on purpose. Always a good strategy to announce your billions in revenue and ‘best quarter ever’ on the same day your competitor ‘bets the company’ on Windows 8.
Just saying…:-)
