>I never thought I'd see the day when AAPL would be in the 90s and MSFT would be in the 80s.

Patience is a virtue (Did I say that before on this thread? :-))

(AND ITS ABOUT TIME THAT AAPL IS UP) calm down. I'm OK. Wish I had more shares :-)

But, stock price isn't anything with considering # shares or the combination, market cap. According to

maccentral.com :

"Still, despite the setback Microsoft has a market cap of $450 billion while Apple, despite it's run up of the
last year, has a market cap of $15 billion."


Foor for thought:
Just being really naive and playing with numbers, and assuming that Apple's market share is kinda 10%,
and disregarding obvious differences (broad range of MSFT's software, and AAPL sells PC & software, etc.)

So anyway, since the market cap of AAPL is sorta 3% of MSFT, then AAPL stock should triple! (Well............)
