For Creative's Sim Wong Hoo, the iPod shuffle is "a big let down … worse than the cheapest Chinese player." For Dell's Kevin Rollins, the iPod is "a fad" and the Mac mini poses no threat to the company's 17 percent market share. Yet, according to eWeek, analysts have already cautioned that both men might be mistaken about the impact that the iPod and Mac mini might have on the industry. Michael Gartenberg of Jupiter called Wong Hoo's comments "foolish." Gartenberg's colleague Joe Wilcox described the Mac mini as "a potential suitor to Windows users, particularly those who have iPods and enjoy the experience delivered by Apple."
