Uh oh! it sounds like the stains on monica's dress are semen. This would not be good news at all for the market mood if it was Clintons. Just kind of an FYI. Mood at the White House is said to be somber

AAPL has some "expectations" built in that is yet to be appreciated PMFJI Phil & Alomex , but AAPL distinguishes itself from the PC "box-makers" by controlling its OS and hardware innovation . AAPL's upgrades are 1st driving Mac "faithful" hardware sales but the upgraded Mac OS will soon compete in the Wintel marketplace through OS X and Mac OS X for NEW revenue gains . The AIO and iMAC indicate a AAPL hardware "gamble" to add fully contained displays in the "box" , but not too much of a gamble. The expectations for advancing display technology indicates it should be part of the unit , as shown here with "OLED" displays : >> " This is a revolution in technology, not a piecemeal step-wise improvement. This is a chance for Singapore to create a display screen industry.... ...the screen takes up a large chunk of the cost of a PC or workstation -- as high as 50 per cent -- and the cost increases dramatically with screen size. Because OLED-based screens are substantially cheaper, the cost of PCs and workstations can be reduced considerably. " << asia1.com.sg Hold on to them Apples ! Jim K.

You are obviously grossly exaggerating the optimism expressed on this board in your pseudo-cheerleader rant (You don't even hold your pom-poms correctly). I think some careful analysis has been presented by Phil, Eric and others. And AAPL's stock performance can speak for itself. We are only flapping our gums here until we see how things unfold with the iMac and such in the very near future. The reports concerning the iMac pre-orders certainly sound positive. GO AAPL! Kurt
