Apple’s Mac revenue beat market expectations in its fiscal second quarter ended March 28, helped by demand to run local AI models, the company said. Mac sales rose 6% from a year earlier to $8.4 billion, topping Wall Street estimates in the low $8 billion range, while total revenue increased 17% to $111.2 billion. CEO Tim Cook said demand for the new MacBook Neo exceeded expectations and that Mac mini and Mac Studio recently sold out.

Apple\'s base-model M4 Mac mini has sold out, adding to signs of broader supply instability across the Mac lineup. A report said Apple has halted delivery orders for the $599 model, which now shows as unavailable. The shortage is not limited to specific options, and some remaining versions face long delays. The market points to component supply issues and stronger demand linked to personal AI use.
