I agree, that sort of hype & write also makes me uneasy.

<<Tabloid journalism at its best.... >>

The trouble with journalism is that thirty years ago, printing technology cost an arm and a leg. If you wanted to get published you had better be good since there were limited publications and a ton of writers.

Now you can rattle of hundreds of xerox copies for less than a nickel a page (on the lowest extreme) and other printing technologies are even cheaper by the million. There's probably a shortage of good writers now.

With web publishing forget it! Every nutcase can now publish their manifesto and broadcast to millions for the cost of an AOL membership.

Re-organizing AAPL along two product lines makes more sense

Buried in Morgan's self-promotion of off-shore etc intrigue was the mention of S. Jobs splitting the company .

Having a "pro" product line to sell/install servers, database s/w and a server (Rhapsody OS X) OS is long over-due. FileMaker was removed from the iMAC's original specs.

"Outsourcing" the iMAC , along with folding the AIO , suggests AAPL's resources may be focused toward that higher profit/revenue end.

Didn't Mr J demo a 400mz copper PowerPC at the last two Seybolds ?

Can't be far off .

" There's also been speculation that Apple is taking this "two-track" idea very seriously. So seriously that it might even split into pro and consumer companies, with Mr. Jobs overseeing it all. But it's just speculation and definitely not "official."
