AMP/Columbus Question: Why the hell would I want an interactive/DVD/internet machine for my TV set? Answer: Who knows? The rumored AMP machine seems to have caught a lot of people's imagination. From what little details I know (assuming that the rumors are true), I can't imagine why anyone would want one of these things. For a similar skeptical perspective, check out readers' comments in today's Macintouch. -Matt

Dobr your perceptions correctly predicted a 1Q PROFIT on 10/15/97 All the "cranks or bears" were here like now predicting a loss for AAPL plus a share price of $6 , but you firmly disagreed : " Tech ... even though I disagree with your estimate ( my guess is 8 cent profit for the Q), you are a reasonable and intelligent AAPL bear. Not many exist " Message 2448914 That was almost 3 months before S. Jobs stunned MacWorld on 1/6/98 with a "1Q profit" I won't argue with you now that you perceive the delayed proxy will contain major news . I check EDGAR daily for its amended filing . Congrats on your correct estimate at a truly dark time for nervous AAPL shareholders, Jim K.
