Apple Computer Inc. could decide to sell a lower-priced of its Macintosh computer to attract consumers already enamored of its iPod music player and annoyed by security problems with Windows PCs, Piper Jaffray analyst Gene Munster said on Thursday.
"We believe that it is not out of the question that Apple would try to capitalize on this opportunity with a more widely accessible product," Munster said, noting Apple has made no comments related to market speculation the company may harbor plans to sell a $500 iMac.
