Apple MacBooks help drive Quanta's quarter

Looking at Apple’s most recent financial report and this latest Digitimes explanation of growing shipments for notebook makers, it’s interesting to reflect that the 2,226,000 notebooks Apple shifted in its last quarter equates to approximately 20 per cent of Quanta’s c.3.5 milion units per month of notebook production.

Quanta's shipments in October are estimated to have grown about 10% on month from 3.6 million units in September. The company also makes computers for HP, Apple, Acer and Sony. We wonder what impact the new MacBook models had on output, as we’ve heard (non-evidentially) these to be selling pretty well.
