    • Apple Reduces iPhone Planned Builds, Suppliers Could Suffer [view article]
      Pacific Crest knows NOTHING CONCRETE about production runs, they have a track record that sucks, and even IF the fictional "facts" are true, this is a STUNNING accomplishment at the LOWER rates, and almost unbelievable at the higher ones. Sep 26 09:53 PM
    • Trouble Still Lies Ahead for Tech Sector [view article]

    • Apple's Biggest Rumor: iPod or Jobs? [view article]
      Steve, come out in a FATSUIT, then peel it off, drop to the floor and do five one handed pushups...then jump to your feet, yelling ..."ONE MORE THING..." and blow them all out with whoops of laughter! Aug 26 09:44 PM
    • Apple's Problems - Bad to the Core? [view article]
      --->>"Can the House of Jobs get back on track? Despite major problems in the last 18 months, Apple still tops the ACSI’s customer satisfaction survey — ten points higher than closest competitor, Dell. And sales are robust."<<-...

      Therein lies the truth.

      Trolling for hits here?

      Whenever you have new products...OR ... old products. Some will have problems, some won't last, some will need replaced.

      Contrast the LOVE that consumers have with APPL, to the FUD you are spewing in this article. Do you REALLY think that people would be this passionate about Fords, or Dells? No. People know that they are cheap crap, and they live with the problems, KNOWING that they bought cheap crap.

      With Apple, they expect PERFECTION, and when that doesn't happen, they bitch and BITCH and MOAN.

      Eventually the problems are fixed, replaced, or repaird.

      And they BUY THE NEXT Apple product, some even standing in lines to do so.

      Then they have the FUN of bitching AGAIN that the newest product or service isn't PERFECT.

      See, they expect PERFECT, with the DELLS and HP's, they expect crap.

      If you cannot reconcile your whinefest with this, you have written an article without honest merits.

      >>>>Apple still tops the ACSI’s customer satisfaction survey — ten points higher than closest competitor, Dell. And sales are robust.<<<<...

      That is really the be all, and end all, isn't it?       Aug 25 09:40 AM
    • When To 'Believe the Hype' of a New Product [view article]
      Bull.

      Apple did NOT "hype" the original iPhone, when asked what premarketing approach Apple had for the phone, Steve Jobs answered "We had NONE."

      Same with the new iPhone.

      ZERO, hyping. In fact, there is hardly a company around that goes to such massive lengths to ASSURE THAT there will be NO advance information on a product prior to it's release.

      So, the title is misleading, and the article is PURE SHAM where the author is either clueless, or trolling for hits.       Aug 25 09:25 AM
    • On Short-Sellers and Dishonest Executives [view article]
      I guess you TOTALLY IGNORING "illegal naked shorting" and the ramifications of essentially "counterfeiting shares" with unlimited numbers flooding the markets was deliberate?

      One would be hard pressed to believe your expertise as a "shorter" and praise of that flavor of "investing" would leave you ignorant of the naked shorting problems.

      So, where was the discussion of THAT HUGE MARKET MANIPULATION?       Aug 04 08:46 AM

      Oh my....Caesar is going to cross the Rubicon?

      Will Erik become a cheerleader with the rest of the Fanboyz? { ... or maybe stop listening to certain unnamed "anal"-ists? }

      Yes, Virginia, there really IS a Santa Clause in Cupertino!       Jul 22 07:57 PM
    • Why GM Should Embrace Bankruptcy [view article]
      {{{I am a stockholder and am extremely made that in less than one year GM has decreased its stock value by 300% ($40 per share is now $10 per share).}}}

      More properly, that should be called a 75% value decrease, not 300%.

      {{Signs of top: screaming people in front of apple stores }}

      Economics 101.

      Signs of a TOPPING, *shares* are highly in demand, overstepping the actual growth of the firms economics.

      Economics 102.

      Signs of a market shift. *PRODUCT* cannot meet overwhelming demand real live customers panicking trying to BUY, BUY, BUY.

      Methinks you flunked Elementary Economics.

      ... or you were short and just had visions of your nest egg going poof.       Jul 07 05:53 PM
    • Bernstein Raises Apple's Target on Higher iPhone Forecast [view article]
      Toni is a GENIUS! Really.

      To actually predict a "TARGET" for a stock forcasting ONE YEAR ahead that it made the SAME DAY of the prediction!

      One for the HALL OF FAME FOR THE BLINDINGLY OBVIOUS!

    • A Real iPhone Challenger - Barron's [view article]
      Actually this is a good thing, really.

      The more the "hounds" are chasing Apple, the more the boyz in Cupertino have to ACCELERATE things.

      If they lose a few sales to the "hounds' GREAT, make Jobs and Ives SWEAT a little I say!

      U know....I just had a BRILLIANT IDEA! { ©™ }

      One of the most clever and fun advertising campaigns ever done was the "HELLO, I'M A PC" series, where you have two guys and a whitescreen and they interact. One is "Mr. PC" who is all business, or wants to be, he distains "cool" and everything has to be all business. The other guy "Mr. Mac" is laid back, iconic, and gets to play the straight man, in this series, the real hero is Mr. PC, as he struggles for respect, for coolness, and agonizes about the frustrations of being on a PC platform, especially with VISTA, the crapware that Microsoft spent seven years creating.

      Now, APPLE pay attention here, EXPAND the concept. Do another series where you have "Mr. MiniKeyboard" VS "Mr. iPhone" and you can play off that interaction, the PC guy is struggling with thumbs and the like, the cool Apple guy is surfing the net, setting up a date with a hot number, and running all the neat programs that are here now, and will EXPAND exponentially!

      This IS A GOOD IDEA Steve, get someone to flesh it all out.

      In case you want to see the entire series of INCREDIBLY CLEVER ads that feature the interaction between Mr. PC and Mr. Mac, the link below will take you to a listing where you can view them all right now.
