Jim:

Everything has a perspective.

If three years ago when you could buy AAPL for about $15 and you hoped it would triple in value and be worth $45 in three years would you have still bought the stock?

The pre-split buyers have little to complain about when the stock performance is measured in terms of actual investment returns.

Your point about AAPL being close mouthed about this quarters problems is right on the money. I like you am very suspect at what is actually going on.

Maybe Sony and AAPL are cooking up a big announcement with regard to consumer appliances and the special charges have to do with moving into that space.

I, too, have been out on that ledge. My year started with qcom, then the slow, drip drip drip (that't my money going down the drain) in dell, then the real debacle with INTC. It was no drip drip but kind of a swoooosh. And, it ended yesterday with AAPL. It was so quick, there was no sound at all, just a flash on the screen and my portfolio decreased by tens of thousands.

It's been a great year out on that ledge.
