Since I don't know anything about Macs but do know a little about finance,
I thought I'd post the following. It's from a relentlessly PRO APPLE site,
so no complaints about the fact that I'm Mac bashing.
http://www.appleinsider.com/articles/07/10/23/apples_worldwi de_mac_market_share_now_3_2_percent_report.html
They had another bangup quarter (helped by the usual bump in educational
sales) and were up over 6% on the day when trading opened. You couldn't pry
my Debian boxes away from me for any BSD variant (DRIVERS BELONG IN THE KERNEL),
but I wish I had every penny of my net worth in Apple stock for the past
three years or so. Consumer/tech is not where I'd want my money now, but
I would have taken the 10x return in less than three years. $1k invested
in AAPL on Jan 1, 2005 would be worth over $11,000 today, assuming one had
the cajones not to take some money off the table.

PJ is not Apple friendly, they have released false, damaging information
about Apple in the past. Recently the WSJ put Apples Market Share between
6 and 7%. I guess it all depends on where you get your information. I think
Apples stock is over inflated. It's about to get a bump, but then...
