right agreed about aapl guidance. If you take their typical guidance pattern and use their numbers then it would make sense they would make $2 this quarter. OR, it could be that apple decided to start to act like a real company and give more reasonable guidance. thats the gotcha game with this earnings. if apple had not guided at all (the way goog does - give no guidance) I would be estimating about 1.70 because i don't think this season is what it used to be to apple. Its the guidance so high that has everyone confused. Or who knows they could have had a huge government mac deal or seomthing, or lockheed or who knows. One thing for sure, I am much less confident in my estimates this time. I am WAGging it.
