  1. the numbers seem a bit messed up today.
    according to google and yahoo finance, the intraday high was not set today. and how can it be that the 52wk low is lower todaythan last time???
    moreover, right now, GE’s market cap is $228.88B, not 228.67. With that, MSFT is no longer in AAPL’s rear mirror, since GE is 3rd !

  2. AAPL=MSFT+DELL+NOK

    Saying that AAPL is a hardware maker and MSFT a software maker, or that MSFT is not a phone maker doesn’t quite explain it all, because DELLs make a lot of hardware and NOKIA makes a lot of pHones:).
    Soon to be added: HPQ.
    Of course, AAPL is approx = MSFT + HPQ.
