I have nothing to say here really. But I’m sick of playing Pac-Man. Pinky is a sumbitch.
ak… when do our resident anal-ysts start talking split ?
I smell another split coming.
LOL! Like, right now?
It’s actually up to $72.66 in after-hours trading…
^^ what he said.
What’s with this bogus info MDN?
Yea, it’s back up again…. ($72.63 at about 17:50 EST)
Obligatory (seems like daily) BOOOOYAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!
Split just before $100 is a good guess for me
Gave back most???

Current after hours price.
It was down 3 cents from the close.
Don’t know what service the author watches, but AAPL is at $72.65 after hours now, and has been around that level since the close…
How crazy of a ride this is. For everyone who got in the early days this has been unbelieveable, but the insane thing is that I feel that this stock might just be *beginning* to take off. Imagine if the pendulum can swing (it it’s clearly started) far enough to get a BIG wave of new Apple users. It’s almost scary the amount of marketspace Apple has to grow into. All those new users are getting the lights turned on in a big way. I bet a lot of those new users are gonna wanna invest in Apple (the big new discovery!), which will drive the stock as well. Very easy to think this stock is a goldmine. It’s hard not to get caught up in it all.
G Spank, “YOU are CORRECT, sir.”
There is SO much upside and room for growth for Apple that the next 2 years could (should?) be HUGE!
If you can afford to HOLD ON to your shares for the long haul, DO IT!!!
You will be richly (pun-intended) rewarded.
I agree. This is phenomenal and probably only the beginning. What fun!
This is a strong indication that Apple is about to crumble. The end is neigh. There’s NO WAY Apple can make the Intel transition without Microsoft eating them for breakfast. The iPod is such a fad.
So sell! sell! sell! so I can afford to buy you selfish jerks!
The Love of Money is the Root of ALL evil
I purchased at 26.00/Share 177.57% return on investment! Just incredible!
How can I track after hours trading?
“The Love of Money is the Root of ALL evil”– absolutely. Especially if that is all you love. Money, like all things, is a tool to use. Money is neutral in its moral value; it is but an inert object. But how money is used is not neutral. So, it’s our own character that ends up deciding whether money contributes to ill will.
I can draw you a beautiful picture of yourself, then cut you with the paper’s edge. Is that because the paper has some intrinsic negative value, or is that because I choose to use it for harm?
Enjoy your pejorative statements. Perhaps they are the root of something, as well?
I’m not sure if anyone here has realised this yet, but today Apple became a $60billion business.
Dell is only worth $73billion. Almost there Stevie boy!
Apple stocks take a dive after Steve Jobs unveils fantastic new Mac lineup. Amidst snowballing doubts, can Apple survive?
The new line-up looks incredible at first glance, and sales in the first day have been phenomenal. Reviewers have only praise for the new machines. But a black cloud looms over this apparent win.
Analyst Richard Black, of consulting firm Richard Black and His Gerbil, raised doubts about whether the new aluminum finish will precisely match the old aluminum. This is a grave concern for users who will be keeping their older Mac next to the new one.
“I think we’ll be seeing lot of people playing ‘wait and see’. I’m not optimistic about Apple at this point. Steve Jobs can only afford so many huge blunders. This may be the death blow.”
Apple was unavailable for comment.
…and sources add that new Macs will have even less cowbell than previous models. Jobs was unavailable for comment.
Just had the news that makes my Saturday…Oooooh yesss
Converted another one to join the almighty Mac.
Number 6 this year
A 12″ powerbook, he’s gonna love it, I’ll make sure.
MW ‘Changes’ as in the world changes, it takes time, but for sure we’ll get there
Echoing what Luc says. Switching people is now stupidly easy. I even try and stay even handed, calling up PC-laptop pages in Camino or Safari, but all they see is the Mac OS. After a few minutes on exposure, you point them to the Apple Store on Regent St, and next you hear from them they’re raving on about their new PowerBook.
I remember saying when AAPL was $13/share that the stock had to go up, but I never thought it would be by this much. I was expecting it to go to about $35 pre-split.
Shows how good I’d be as an investment analyst, doesn’t it?
BTW I spent my spare cash on a second home rather than buying AAPL @ $13. Oh well, no regrets….
