Ok, last week Sony was supposed to buy Apple … who is it THIS week?
No, wait, I’ve got it — stock analysts have upgraded Apple after having read Thurrott’s iPod mini review. If PT says it’s bad, it must be good!
Let the dough keep coming in.
HA!! Thats awesome. Apple’s stock is higher than Microsofts (per share) for once. Thats something you don’t see often.
you go apple…
Oh Sorry. I just bought few shares. I didn’t know that it has this kind of effect ” width=”19″ height=”19″ alt=”smile” style=”border:0;” />

Play around with it as much as you like, you’ll find MSFT is only a winner if you go back to the dawn of time.
Perhaps this is due to the fact that all the attention from the iPod is causing people to really look at Apple again. No debt, profitability when most others did not show profit, elegant products that just work and have not security issues, etc, etc.
Whenever someone does not have a knee jerk reaction and really looks into where Macs are at and what they can do today, I think they will end up joining the Mac “cult” ” width=”19″ height=”19″ alt=”grin” style=”border:0;” />
Still not at its highs before it split a while back…
over the long run apple has not been the best investment…
sigh

Re: notMCCfr
if you look at the place where it indicates “Split” it shows where the stock gave out 2 for 1 deals to keep the price down.
what that means is the stock price without the splits would be equivalent to 4 times the price. in that time frame, the pre-split price was the same as the adjusted after-split price. if it wasn’t split, it would be at about $100 right now.
Apple stock is higher than Intel!
