Is Apple referring to all laptops sold last year only (when there was a shortage of semiconductors which may have affected the shipment of especially more affordable laptops)? Or is Apple referring to sales since the MacBook Air launched back in 2008 and considered all iterations as a single product just because it did not change its name? If that is the case, is Apple considering the ThinkPad line, for instance, as one product as well? (Probably not, as Lenovo claimed to have sold 100 million ThinkPads back in 2015). Apple does not reveal the total number of MacBook Airs sold, so it is difficult to ascertain. I wonder what are the metrics that Apple is using for this. It also referred to the 13-inch MacBook Pro as being the "world's second best-selling laptop".


During the keynote yesterday, Apple referred to the MacBook Air as the "world's best-selling laptop".
