Apple has rated that the fact of Dell and HP being such huge competitors as their top threat.

Apple did not rate any of their weaknesses higher than a 2. they should work on being able to direct more attention to those areas and especially concentrate on the two areas of dependency on new product launches and the weak presence in business arena.
Slide 28 - SWOT Matrix S-O Strategies Increase awareness through the web of the immunity of Mac products to worms and viruses. (S5, O1) Advertise using individuals that will link Generation X & Y to the iTunes and other related products.

Slide 36 - Recommendations Strategy 1 Open six computer retail stores (not just peripheral and accessories). Apple currently has stores opened throughout the United States with only peripheral and accessories for their computers. Adding the hardware should generate more hands-on awareness and use already established locations. This will increase product accessibility for those who wish to view items other than just accessories and increase awareness of the originality of Apple’s products. 2 percent increase over the next 2 years in sales representatives for the computer hardware. Strategy 2 Contract music spokesperson to attract the upcoming generation who are attending high school and college. This will invoke a sense of style and linking apple with a distinctive and memorable top 10 hit. This will stay in the customer’s awareness and influence future purchase decisions. Contracting one music spokesperson estimated $6 million. Strategy 3 Add more features to current products for greater Wintel compatibility. Features such as iTune software compatible with windows based computers, Office programs loadable from PC installation disk (This would require a software agreement with Microsoft). In late October 2003 Apple released an iTune software package that is PC ready. I t will increase the United States market share at least 30 percent for the next 2-3 years. $50 million is the estimated cost for Research and Development.
Slide 37 - Cost of Recommendations Open 6 computer retail stores (not just peripheral and accessories) Contract music spokes person (Sarah McLachlan | 50 cent) for a cost of Start production of Wintel compatible software for a cost of Total expected cost = 100M 6M 50M 156M
