Apple's $199 iPhone Is a Game-Changer

Brewer says: "All the news about Apple is good now and all the news about Microsoft is dire."

SO true. That's the impression anyone gets from daily bits and pieces of news - but when you list Apple vs MS news stories side by side, it's really eye-opening. Like this: www.mactivist.com/wall

No one will mistake that page for a complete or unbiased compilation of news; it's no one-stop resource for investment decisions! But it's interesting to ask: If one were to deliberately compile only positive MS news and negative Apple news, just how short would the list be? (Hint: Very!)

While people (and investors) are picking up the "Apple is hot" story piece by piece, I think many of them are missing the scale of the quiet sea change taking place – with the iPhone, with media downloads, with the Mac in homes, schools, and even enterprise. That's fine with me, as I keep scooping up Apple shares in anticipation of the coming day when the world catches on to what's happening!
