Ok, call it 9%. The y/y is against a holiday quarter too, so that's the beauty of y/y. It's Apples to Apples in terms of time period.Actually it's 8.7% and it's just higher revenue thanks to the fact it was the holiday season and Macs are more expensive than ever.
So I wouldn't say Macs are doing great.

Intel already launched their most relevant 9th gen CPUs.
The rest of the line will only be some petty refreshes.
So it looks like Apple is waiting for nothing.
Revenue is revenue. People voting with dollars shows you people are willing to spend more Macs, but they offer features the consumer wants.
What revenue growth number would you like to see in a mature product to consider it doing well? 9% growth is insane for a legacy product and at this scale.
You know how much $7B in revenue in 90 days is? For some perspective, the entire Netflix company did $4.2B in total revenue for their most recent quarter.
