He is singing the exact same tune (doomsday for Apple) when he bought put options in the $420 range. He just keeps harping about the same thing.
When did I buy $420 puts? I've lost some $ on Apple puts, but made much more. More importantly, I'm not singing a doomsday scenario for Apple. In fact, I've been explicit that the reason I'd like to go long AAPL is that I'm increasingly seeing a very limited downside even *if* everything goes against them.
For Apple to go to $200 would basically mean sales would plummet 50-60% and the whole world no longer wanting to buy Apple products.
??? I just had a nice discussion with Slacker and others that suggested something very different. I think that they could maintain margins and have sales roughly stabilize. Yes, their global market share would continue to fall in this scenario, but sales wouldn't need to collapse.

You don't have to agree, but you're certainly not painting my position accurately. I'm sorry that a different opinion is something that you feel you need to ignore.
