The real test over time will be whether APPLE is a one horse show or has creative as well as marketing depth. Everything we've seen so far is the workoff of the Steve Jobs pipeline. I like APPLE stuff, but the NOKIA 920 outshines the Iphone.
Meanwhile the company has a load of cash and positioned to make some key acquisions.
So the $60K question here is APPLE stock cheap at $400 or overvalued?
Buy Apple's Current Dip To Ride Its Likely Rise To $800 [View article]
I think the article was well written.
I currently do not own Apple stock so am fairly objective.
My concerns are :
1) Future product "pipeline" with Job's no longer involved ( will remain an open question and big risk);
2) Loss of focus on quality- the seemingly trivial glitch with the new Iphone 5 Maps application is potentially an indicator (?)
3) China - recent Foxconn factory worked unrest/riots; Apple needs to bring these jobs back to the United States.
Keep in mind Microsoft, and others, will be bringing product to market to compete. They may be late to the party, but if they come prepared could take away market share.
Windows 8 Is The Next Battleground For Apple And Microsoft [View article]
Apple is no " girly" company. Ipad 3's are being integrated into the business models of major corporations. It is not a plaything, rather a productivity enhancement. This penetration into the real business world poses a real threat to MSFT.
My hope is that MSFT will finally get off it's arse and become competative.

The Ipad 3 is being adopted and integrated into the work process of large corporations. Specialized apps are viewed as productivity enhancers. This penetration into the business world is interesting. The Iphone has already taken dominance over the Blackberry.
I am long both MSFT and Apple. Windows 8 may be a make or break-it proposition for os dominance. Perhaps it is time for MSFT's "visionary" Bill Gates to return to the helm?

I love my Ipad and Iphones, just being realistic.
