I wonder if some of the uncertainty is because people don't know what Macworld is exactly. I've followed the goings on at Macworld (online) and watched many of the keynotes, but till today I didn't realize Macworld was an independent conference rather than an official Apple event. Canceling a significant official event is big news, but pulling out of an otherwise independent event not so much so.

AAPL drops a few points every time Jobs sneezes.

I don't know, this might be a little more than a sneeze...

i liked what this guy had to say: http://finance.google.com/group/google.finance.22144/browse_...

I just bought my first direct stock (non-index, non-mutual fund). A whopping five shares of AAPL. I think this is non-threatening news for the company and they are priced pretty well, currently, for holding longer than a year. Wish me luck. Anyone else just grab some?

I bought 10, for mostly the same reasons. If you don't mind divulging, what broker did you use?

Some dude named Scott. He doesn't drip, but he comes highly recommended for the non-professional who wants to go long.

Time to fade that gap.
