Here are a few quotes from the article:

"In a step to grab market share from the PC space, Apple moved its entire iMac all-in-one desktop family to Intel Core 2 Duo processors and dropped its starting price for the product line below $1,000."

"George Swords, marketing manager at PowerMacPac, a Portland, Ore.-based Apple specialist, said the iMacs had previously been selling "ridiculously hot. Really, really selling well."

"Apple's switch to Intel and more competitive pricing are spurring sales against rivals such as Dell, Swords said. "Moving to Intel was a wonderful thing to do," he said. "The [Mac OS X] operating system runs better on Intel than it ever ran on PowerPC."

"For pricing, a look at the numbers shows Apple has dramatically changed its position against a key competitor."

"Apple has been gaining ground on rival Dell in desktop pricing—an area where the Round Rock, Texas-based company was once the clear, dominant force in the industry."
