You are obviously unhappy. You have many doubts. If I were you, I would sell any stock in Apple. Having doubts does not mean I am unhappy. It just means I am paranoid - a quality which has served companies such as Intel very well. When arrogance begins to creep into a high-tech company (even those which are in a near-monopoly position), you should be worried. I have already posted earlier in the quarter that I expect this to be a bang-up quarter for Apple, and the stock price will reflect that through at least February/March of next year, which is when I plan on holding to at the moment. But I also think that Apple needs to start showing us the money when it comes to Mac OS X. If MacWorld SF comes and goes and Mac OS X gets pushed further and further out, it will not be a good sign IMO. But tell me, how do you have the pulse of the Apple users to make the statement that Apple users are unhappy. I thought I made it clear that that was just my personal observation. I make it based mainly on postings to newsgroups, web sites, contact with developer friends over the past 15 years and general conversation with lots of Mac-owning friends. Firstly, what do you mean by local peaks. Local maxima as in the standard mathematical definition. What I think you are saying is the stock price tends to peak 6 months to a year after introduction of new computer models-according to you. Actually, my point was more just that user sentiment tends to lead stock price. Fru!
