Apple has reported a steep rise in profits in the final quarter of its financial year on strong sales of iPhones and Macintosh computers.
Apple said 6.89 million iPhones were sold in the quarter, up from 1.11 million in the same period last year. The company said it shipped 2.61 million Macintosh computers during the quarter - 21 per cent unit growth and 17 per cent revenue growth over the year-ago quarter. It said it sold 11.05 million iPods during the quarter, representing eight per cent unit growth and three per cent revenue growth over the year-ago quarter.
"We don't yet know how this economic downturn will affect Apple. But we're armed with the strongest product line in our history," Jobs said.
