I totally would believe Apple would come out with something that retarded.

that's gold! the onion certainly do a slick gag ;D
shardian:
I had never heard of the onion before. Add to that the fact that their video looked identical to CNN video, and that I didn't have sound on for most of the video on the first watch and I was the perfect sucker. ;D

The Onion is one of the oldest institutions on the web... I remember reading it as far back as the mid 90s. It may predate Ebay and I know it predates Google.

Thats because it originally was an actual "fake" printed newspaper before it was on the web. I remember a friend of mine was subscribed to it back in 1998.

I think those who love Apple products will still purchase them this year. Sales will be lower as the "average" consumer may not, but their core customers will still support them.
Apple's P/E is about 17 right now. That's slightly higher than some other bellwether tech stocks but only marginally higher than most of the Dow 30. I'm sure if you compared it to most components of any major index, it's going to be inline or slightly higher. The stock isn't trading at a high P/E so fundamentally, it's a good value.
Obviously, predicting where it will be in 6-12 months or longer isn't easy. If you're looking at a long term purchase, the philosophy of investing is much different than a short term trading scenario.
Hell, it seems their stock value is fluctuating more on Steve Jobs' health as opposed to recent market trends. That's what concerns me more than any other aspect of the company right now.
