Maybe this is only news for me, quote from the OP linked article:

It’s also worth keeping in mind that during this entire time, Apple has had to continue paying its leasing costs for its retail space and has continued to pay every one of its retail employees*, so its operating costs haven’t changed all that much.
*-Emphasis mine

That in itself is a good enough reason for me to continue buying in to the Apple Eco System. It has also changed my mind about replacing the seven years old MBP with a Windows laptop, MacBook Air it is...

I like that too. On the other hand, I have read horror stories about how Apple treats it's retail store employees.
