a fan of Apple since the mid 80's and i'd agree with what you are saying...but it kind of depends on why you have apple stock, if you are a big Apple / tech fan and you can afford to stick it out then great. If your in it for the money then the the risks just took a major upturn.<br><br>I'm afraid that when Apple are good they are very very good, but when they are bad they are shocking. And their supply chain is enviable but it also has issues, they've opened stores that compete with their old supply chain, i'm constantly waiting for software to ship to registered resellers (especially os) they charge for many products like mobile and ilife where competitors like microsoft wouldn't, i just waited 2 months and sent several complain't letters before getting my iphone via o2. And i've even had long running apple resellers tearing there hair out in rage over issues like when they cancelled a load of orders claiming a manufacturing plant lost having been hit by an earth quake (until someone got photo's of an untouched plant), or that famous quote when customers were being mugged for ipods and when asked if they'd make the headphones in black so they didn't stand out they issued a statement saying \"better to have style and get mugged than not have style\"<br><br>But having said all that, i hope that they have learned from their past mistakes and will continue to wow us long into the future, doing what they do best, making machines that we love to love.", "is_last_child": false, "can_reply": false, "down_voted": false, "real_date": "2009-01-14_17:27:26", "killed": false, "user_key": "davidcoxon", "has_been_anonymized": false, "edited": false, "author_is_moderator": false, "from_request_user": false, "votable": true, "date": "11 months ago", "approved": true, "num_replies": 0, "is_first_child": false, "email": "", "parent_post_id": null, "depth": 0, "points": 0, "author_is_creator": false, "is_realtime": false}, "9713804": {"up_voted": false, "ip": "", "has_replies": false, "message": "very well said.  apple doesn't appear to be positioned to fail in the face of steve job's departure, be it permanent or not.  they've built a castle there, and they'll continue to innovate like they have against previous speculation.<br><br>the jobs story is one that the talking heads love because it draws headlines and it puts a face on a company.", "is_last_child": false, "can_reply": false, "down_voted": false, "real_date": "2009-01-14_17:27:01", "killed": false, "user_key": "8816387bcc8c736b8742e196f3dd2780", "has_been_anonymized": false, "edited": false, "author_is_moderator": false, "from_request_user": null, "votable": true, "date": "11 months ago", "approved": true, "num_replies": 0, "is_first_child": false, "email": "", "parent_post_id": null, "depth": 0, "points": 0, "author_is_creator": false, "is_realtime": false}, "9713805": {"up_voted": false, "ip": "", "has_replies": false, "message": "Ivan: take advantage of idiots. :-)", "is_last_child": false, "can_reply": false, "down_voted": false, "real_date": "2009-01-14_17:25:52", "killed": false, "user_key": "3553f5e0db0fd1ec4e40a932a2d8f5b3", "has_been_anonymized": false, "edited": false, "author_is_moderator": false, "from_request_user": null, "votable": true, "date": "11 months ago", "approved": true, "num_replies": 0, "is_first_child": false, "email": "", "parent_post_id": null, "depth": 0, "points": 0, "author_is_creator": false, "is_realtime": false}, "9713806": {"up_voted": false, "ip": "", "has_replies": false, "message": "Unfortunately, not everyone agrees to that.

If your in it for the money then the the risks just took a major upturn.<br><br>I\'m afraid that when Apple are good they are very very good, but when they are bad they are shocking. And their supply chain is enviable but it also has issues, they\'ve opened stores that compete with their old supply chain, i\'m constantly waiting for software to ship to registered resellers (especially os) they charge for many products like mobile and ilife where competitors like microsoft wouldn\'t, i just waited 2 months and sent several complain\'t letters before getting my iphone via o2. And i\'ve even had long running apple resellers tearing there hair out in rage over issues like when they cancelled a load of orders claiming a manufacturing plant lost having been hit by an earth quake (until someone got photo\'s of an untouched plant), or that famous quote when customers were being mugged for ipods and when asked if they\'d make the headphones in black so they didn\'t stand out they issued a statement saying "better to have style and get mugged than not have style"<br><br>But having said all that, i hope that they have learned from their past mistakes and will continue to wow us long into the future, doing what they do best, making machines that we love to love.</div>\

However, it helps to remember that Apple survived without Jobs for several years, and in the process became not only a viable firm (Macintosh II, etc.) but also introduced some interesting products (HyperCard). I don\'t know the personalities in Apple, but I\'m sure that even if Jobs goes off to India rather than staying at Apple, the company will survive and still do great things...maybe not insanely great, but definitely great.</div>\

Unless they create a Pandora-like subscription or free service, there\'s little left to do to iPod except try to hang onto market share.  Which is probably why Tony Fadell quit.<br><br>The Mac line is doing well, but they hardly need Jobs around for that.  Build a pretty box around Intel &amp; nVidia\'s latest once a year and shine up the OS once in a while.  The switchers are coming from word of mouth, not feature upgrades.  Maybe they can ship the rumored netbook or Kindle competitor - perhaps leading the category and perhaps not.<br><br>The only thing left is the rumored Mac Mini as set-top.  The TV space definitely needs that box, but unless Apple can crack the content suppliers as they did with record labels, it\'ll be a weak product.  There\'s a lot more money in the video business than audio, and the gatekeepers have been less willing to give Apple a piece, much less dominant control.  Netflix, Hulu, and Youtube support (all in HD) would be the bare minimum.  Really it needs a subscription plan for 1080p movie rentals that cache in the background.  If they build it, they need Jobs to negotiate with studios and also introduce it.</div>\

People sell stocks for any number of reasons. There are people who just looks at technical factors of a stock and may not even realize the news events. In some ways, it reminds me a bit of people who get upset when founders sell stock, but don\'t realize they need to diversify their assets as well. In the end, the markets will absorb the news and move on.</div>\

It\'s just not clear what will ever see the light of day. Apple is currently the largest shipper of Multi-Touch products (iPhone, iPod Touch, MacBook Pro [w/multi-touch trackpads], etc.) Apple purchased FingerWorks a few years ago to enter the Multi-Touch arena and never looked back.<br><br>Not only is Apple is poised to start offering far more Multi-Touch products, but they are already far ahead of the competition when it comes to expertise in Multi-Touch. So, I would be prepared to consider new Multi-Touch products a main component of their pipeline down the road.<br><br>Consider that, along with the fact that OS X is already an ideal interface for Multi-Touch interaction (The Dock, Spring-loaded folders, Exposé, Genie effects, Core Animation, resolution independent applications [soon]) and you can see that Apple has slowly, but surely, been preparing their OS for Multi-Touch for a loooong time.

Jobbs or Apple<br><br>To believe (1) man can cause the complete downfall of such a strong company is non-sense.   Granted to replace the "leadership" might be question, however the loyal niche followers have always enjoyed the opportunity of choice.   With Graphics &amp; Video leading us in to the next frontier, Apple will again provide the one solution many MS loyalist don\'t believe is there.</div>\
