I think that Apple is definitely a good stock to watch. Apple's products seem to all be well-received and with a new iphone on the way along with rumored new designs on their laptops, the stock could soar.

Blogitforu....Although you sound like a highly educated individual, what you are proposing, and what you seem to have found on the internet, is a hacked copy of LEOPARD (Not 'Leopards') OS X. This hacked version is not only illegal, it is NOT compatible with a Windows platform PC...nor should it be. Please, take your educated self and your promotion of pirated software elsewhere.

The war of the computer world is still going on and the question people still ask is which is better a mac or a pc. Now that u can run leopards on a regular pc and mac can run windows on an apple does this mean the war is over? From people experience they say running leopards on a regular intel or amd computer is much better than running it on a mac because of hte processor speed and everything and its much more smooth. Then u got windows running a mac people say that runs better too but who knows i never tried it personally myself but it is pretty cool that leopards can run a regular desktop now and people dont have to go out and spend thousands of dollar on a mac. What is everyone feedback on this situation and which do u prefer more. Tune in later for a video on how ot install mac on a pc.

Before I start up the guide of Dual Booting, Please be aware that installing Leopards on Window Machine is Illegal. If you wanted to have a legal copy of Leopards you may purchase it by clicking here. Sometime is so hard to understand because window is not legal in installing it to a Mac Machine, it’s just a thought. A day after Apple release Leopards on the market, hackers have managed to create a patched DVD for everyone to use without buying a copy of this software to install on a PC Machine. Please be aware that this instruction is not on its own capacity for a perfect install, it is still an experimental and things may not work the way you wanted it. Now let get into the real deal, and dirty of this software phenomenon.

Apple seems to have lost the momentum. iEtc is getting to be passe'. The new laptop is soso. iPhone is too expensive. Only thing driving the sale is people making money by sending those to Asia. Apple and ATT probably lost money that way.

Buying Apple should be like buying any stock: buy and hold what you like. Then you can weather price drops with equanimity and ignore the speculators. I like Apple stuff. As has been noted, market saturation (and mathematics) dictated that iPod sales could not continue to increase at the former pace. By the same token, flip side, Mac sales can increase strongly for the foreseeable future. Through iTunes, Apple is also a growing provider of digital information and entertainment.

Munster called for 1.65 million iphones for the quarter, not 2 million units.

As a long term investor in Apple I guess I don't worry too much about quarterly reports. Apple is kicking serious butt and the report will be glowing as usual and the stock will fall $6-7 the same day. With Apple no news is good news as far as the stock price goes. We just had another nice run up in the price lately on what news? None.

IPod sales slowing and that means doom and gloom for the company? LOL. It's hard to increase those numbers when you own 80+ % of the market and the biggest threat to iPod sales is the iTouch iPhone which I view as just a deluxe iPod and could be considered iPod's anyways.

This is an exciting run for Apple fans and long term investors. I bought at $22.50 and got in on the stock split so the price would have to drop to $11.25 before I start losing money which doesn't seem likely any time soon.
