introducing the Apple Macbook 'Wheel'
AtomSmasher:
Also, if you're going to say it's not very mature to sarcastically call someone a genius, then you probably shouldn't respond by saying sarcastically that they "know everything about everything" since that essentially means exactly the same thing. If one is considered not very adult and name calling, then the other should considered to be the same.

They're releasing clunkers and you're going to see a cultural trend this year that shies away from conspicuous consumption.

If it's going to continue to go down why would you consider it?
GM
3.97 -0.16 (-3.87%) Jan 8 11:37am ET
Open: 4.13
High: 4.15
Low: 3.92
Volume: 6,245,849
Avg Vol: 38,161,000
Mkt Cap: 2.42B
Apple
90.80 -0.21 (-0.23%) Jan 8 11:38am ET
Open: 90.46
High: 91.74
Low: 90.04
Volume: 8,066,556
Avg Vol: 32,528,000
Mkt Cap: 80.72B
In a month we'll see which one went up/down more.

Just bumping this to see current prices....
Apple (AAPL) - 130.68
General Motors (GM) - 1.59
$10,000 investment in GM at $3.97 per share would be worth $4,003 now (rounded off)
The same invested in Apple would be worth $14,374 (rounded off).
Obviously, both have event risk. GM's bankruptcy filing is due soon and who knows how Apple will respond with Job's health. But it's pretty clear which would have been the better investment as of this date.
