  • S&P 500's Top Returners in 2009 [View article]

    One of the few viewpoints I've seen in recent times that says APPL is an "Unattractive" stock.

    Odd. Very odd.

  • How Apple's Market Share Will Propel Stock to $500, Part 2 [View article]

    If Android doesn't deliver something spectacular in the next two years, then iPhone will be heading towards ridiculous market shares, just as the iPod did.

    And that's not even accounting for the iSlate/MacTouch..

    All the predictions of an Apple tipping point in the market are coming true. How nice that the world order can be so well and truly turned upside down.

  • Apple vs. Microsoft: Who Will Bring the Ideal Mobile Productivity Device? [View article]
    It is an utter joke to bring Microsoft into this debate - they are NOWHERE!

    10 years and Win Mobile is at 6.5, and it may as well be out of the ark.

    They've lost it. Plain and simple.

  • Is Music Moving to the Cloud? [View article]
    Subscription music has been tried and tried and tried. No-one has made a go of it.

    It might be fine for the odd foray into discovering new music, but definitely not for the music you love.

    I'm also tired of subscriptions here there and everywhere. I've been cancelling them and prefer to pay once and be done with it.

  • Trade Apple Like a Fool [View article]
    I'm an Apple perma-bull and short of there being a complete an utter melt down Apple is going to continue to sell shed loads of Macs, iPhones and iPods. If it were going to be badly affected it would have shown up last quarter and in a few days we'll really see how it is faring.

    The iPhone is going to do what the iPod did to MP3 players and music distribution. One research analysis today gives Apple 40% of the smartphone market by 2013.

    Business is moving into Mac and this powerful trend that will see Apple prosper as traditional pc makers watch their marketshare walk...

    Long live APPL-perma-bulls! I'm long APPL, very long. By the time I take my pension in 2019 it will be a very valuable shareholding indeed.

  • Why I'm Selling Apple and Google Today - and Holding Amazon [View article]

    Incredible. The upside to Apple is just monstrous, but being completely drowned by Steve's private, personal issues.

    If as is now being suggested, the iPhone/iPod 'platform' takes over the smartphone market just as the iPod and iTunes did with MP3 players 4years ago, APPL revenues will spiral.

    That's without the unstoppable march of the Mac computer.

    Blinkered. Unseeing. Nervous. Good luck naysayers, shorts and others trying to talk down Apple.

  • Apple Investors: Fasten Your Seatbelts, Put On Helmets [View article]
    I like it... they've exhausted the health issue, the stock options issue, the iPod growth is over issue, the MobileMe launch issue...

    ..so now they just say Apple's a great company with great prospects but who's stock is set to go down that will go down because... because because.

    Quite astonishing really.

  • Music Downloads: You Can't Regulate One Industry and Leave Another Alone [View article]
    Quite right.

    This British Government goes off half-cocked at every opportunity. It's quite unbelievable.

    And if they do do this, what comes next, books, film and every other type of digital consumable?

    The mess we in, and it could be far worse without the efforts of Apple's iTunes (5 billion songs and counting) is entirely due to the backwardness and greed of the music labels. Having made the mess they want to resort to legislation, and what government is more willing to issue legislation on anything that moves than this one?

  • Armed with DRM-Free Music, Yahoo Would Be a Digital Music Force  [View article]
    As regards Universal and Apple's iTunes, know this more up to date development:

    NBC Universal chief executive Jeff Zucker told the Financial Times: "We’ve said all along that we admire Apple, that we want to be in business with Apple. We’re great fans of Steve Jobs.”

    The question that needs to be asked is when are the labels going to give DRM free content to Apple?

  • Apple, Amazon Take Note: Free Music Downloads Are Coming [View article]
    Great, so I have free backgound music for my dinner party, the steak is excellent and then... on comes an advertisement for a vaginal thrush ointment?

    I don't think so.

    Doesn't anyone think anything through these days?

  • Apple and Intel Fail to Impress: Waiting for the Fed's Next Move [View article]
    Correct comment above, he does appear to know sh*te about Apple.

    Anyone that says this: "A troubling fall for a company built on Steve Jobs hype" must be going to a lot of trouble to avoid looking at any numbers from the business.

    Steve Jobs nor long term investors care one iota for short term rises and falls. We know where APPL is headed, and so long as they continue as they are all will be well. Better than well, amazing in fact.

    There are so many complete idiots talking about Apple these days that I despair...

  • Is Tech Still a Safe Haven? [View article]
    Uneasy about Apple? Why?

    Oh, the terrible products that aren't selling. And the lack of innovation...

    Tough call hey? Not.
