The sneaky way COVID-19 helped Apple

Obviously, due to the various and sundry COVID-19 responses around the world, rational and irrational, more people worked from home and many kids had remote schooling. Those two things forced a lot of families to buy new computers since multiple members of the household needed access to a personal computer at the same time. So, COVID-19 helped Apple to sell more Macs (and iPads and even iPhones) thanks to the need to be remotely connected to work and school.
