Why Apple Stock Is Poised To Go Flat - At Best

Mr. Verke,

I won't resort to calling names, but boy, I must admit to agreeing with the prior posters... you seem to have drawn tenuous conclusions from your dubious premises.

Market cap? Sure, I'll buy the disconnect between Apple and some other folks. This outfit is generating some serious cash, though. Billions and billions of it. The company projects this to continue, and regardless of its current overall market share, and/or the state of the PC market at home, there is abundant room for growth in sales from just capturing additional market share. The products are highly desirable. They are day and night better than PC/Microsoft combos, and the company has figured out how to service its customers so well it occupies the TOP SLOT in customer satisfaction.

Have you used one of these things? Good god, man! Eveything they touch gets better. Hell, the even reinvented the concept of backup, with their simple, obvious, and bulletproof Time Capsule/Time Machine combo. They finally fixed one of the biggest headaches in all ConsumerCOmputerLand..... the need for reliable and simple and transparent and fast and useable (and wireless!) backup of data and program. Cheap. With decent margins. Equivalent windows hardware has to be cobbled together with the disparate products of companies that don't talk to each other.

The examples of greatness in this outfit are legion. I think you'd be well served to consider how much of a game changer they are, then revisit your arguments.
