You say you are here to share investment ideas and learn from others about Apple as an investment but it seems to me you are just here to continuously bash Apple and nothing more. Define "bash Apple"? I'm actually quite interested in going long Apple when the valuation reaches what I think is appealing. I've done it before. I've repeatedly praised their genius marketing, the trail blazing they did in the 2008-2011 era, and their wildly devoted fan base that kept paying premiums regardless. I've read every single one of your posts and you keep saying basically the same thing and we all get your position. Much of what I say is regarding new information. For example, Pebble going on sale at BB this week. I'm not sure how it's any more rehashed than the constant magic technical charts or stories about how some school is using iStuff you see here daily. My money is riding on the fact that you will be about as accurate as many that have predicted the death of Apple over the last 30 years. Except that I'm not predicting their death, or anything close to it. I've said this several times: I see their mobile business becoming more like their traditional computing business.... sales contracting, but margins staying high while they cater to a select and wildly devoted fan base. I'd pay $250 for the stock in a heartbeat, based upon my assumption they can choose to stabilize if they want.
