According to the online retailer's rankings for popular items by category, 6 iPod models were in the top 10 in the MP3 Player category and 3 MacBook models placed in the top 10 in the Laptops category.

In addition, Apple earned the top spot in all the above categories with its 30 GB iPod (Black), MacBook, and iMac.

Neat. Add one mac mini model and one iMac and the whole consumer mac line is in the top 10. Thats not bad at all.

Wow...that is awesome, I hope they keep it up. I want to see Winblows fail miserably because I dislike it. I refuse to do any online shopping on my XP laptop, just incase of some spyware is on it that I don't know about. You can never be too careful...

Amazon's a great place to buy Apple stuff as they always have rebates (5-10%)
offer free shipping and no tax. No one can beat that!

This is good news.
And imagine how it would look if Amazon could sell Apple products overseas! This would increase the numbers even more.

I can't believe Amazon is still selling G3's and eMacs.

Apple always tops the list because they typically have 3 or 4 iMacs that remain unchanged for 9 months. Compare this to the a1610n from HP at number 12. You can also buy the a1600n, a1620n, a1630n and a1640n. And in 2 weeks, the a1600 series will be replaced, if it hasn't been already.

The numbers might be somewhat inflated due to the long life cycles of apple products, but you can't spin this as bad news.
