My mistake. I thought I heard someone recapping the AAPL call saying they had 139 billion in cash. The figure is 39, not 139. So if we subtract 39 from 405 (ah price) we get 366 not 260 as stated in the previous post. Regardless, their cash flow statement is very impressive. They are truly a power house. I can see why people are nervous with the stock. At the same time, growing a company their size isn't that easy. But I always seem to stay cynical and think that it's to the insiders advantage to have their stock price low. Especially if they think there's a big ramp in new products down the road. The average investor cries about the slow pace of new product releases and the insiders know that the wait is likely to be fruitful. Who wants stock options at 700 when they can get them for $400 (or lower)? I'm not in the camp that thinks AAPL's run is completely over. However, they have a short window to innovate and keep their franchise on top. If PC's are truly slowing and are eventually going to be a thing of the past, AAPL better stay ahead of the curve in every other aspect of "computing".
