HerbVic> do you really think it's all over but the crying for Apple?......... You must admit that things are far from dire yet.

No but I do think Apple is very vulnerable to a CEO who becomes frustrated in his attempts to grow the Apple market share and to clone new disciples.

Will Jobs stay at Apple, that is the most important question and when he goes, how will Wall Street react.

But seriously, do you really think it's all over but the crying for Apple?

Back when I used to play chess competitively, there would be times during training when a player was making blunder after blunder. The rest of the team would criticize the choices and offer alternatives.

Occasionally tempers would flare, and the blundering player would say "Ok you play the game, Einstein". The player from the sidelines would jump in and sometimes ask for the game to be rewound several moves back before taking over as the current situation was unsalvageable, and only restarting from a much earlier position could lead to victory.

There are times I wonder if the only way for Apple to win is to rewind back to the time they hired Sculley.
