Yes, and such profit margins could help justify continuing a product line with smaller sales volume (noting that Voyage has only seen one temporary price reduction that I know of). But a combination of high profit and high volume is far easier to justify. Only Apple seems to be able to pull that off, however (and maybe even their luck is running out).
