True. But you know, in the midst of this hurricane of selling, analyst opinions of Apple are up slightly from last week:

This is good. However, the whole sector was upgraded over the last month, which sadly means that even though Apple's average recommendation has increased from 2.30 to 2.08 it still sits at the bottom of the eight computer manufacturers listed.

Apple simply gets no respect.

I haven't seen any credible news to justify the latest meltdown.

I agree. This could be due to big boys unwinding their positions, as you said, or to some report about sales or something due any minute now.

The deafening silence in Cupertino just lends credibility to the naysayers who claim iMac was the proverbial one-trick pony.

Indeed. How about some October iMac sales figures, for example?

Bob, I wandered into a Denver area CompUSA Saturday just to check things out (I'm thinking of getting a G3 PowerBook. Three iMacs went out the door during the 20 minutes I was there. And the demo iMac was mobbed again like when it was introduced in August. I wonder if that's the result of the $30/month deal? Or are people beginning to get their Christmas gifts?

Anyway, it didn't appear that sales were slow to me.
