HerbVic,
I agree with you that AAPL will be a good play on a bounce off of support this week (when ALL the box makers will get smashed thanks to CPQ), but I think AAPL will be looking at a bounce off of 32 1/2 or 33, not 36. Take a look at the Nasdaq futures, which are down about 49 right now. AAPL, like all boxmakers, will be getting a haircut at the open. My initial look at the charts show the next true support for AAPL is that 32 1/2 or 33 range. It has some support at 35, but I think tomorrow will be alot worse for AAPL at the open than you do. I know you are long AAPL, but for a trade the 36 entry might be a disaster.

Thanks,

But what I'm counting on primarily is that after a good ER, official release of the news of the speed bumped iMacs ***

Herb and all,

I'm curious as to why none of you believe that the speed-bumped iMac's could be disclosed to analysts on the conference call, perhaps with an accompanying news release of some kind. It's no secret to anyone the 333's are coming, so why play this game. The date of earnings release is a very good opportunity for such a relatively unimportant announcement. This allows WWDC, for example, to be the perfect location for the beta release of OSX for the Mac, some sort of strategy for QT4.0, or the portable. Any comments?

Sam
