While MS and Google fight it out to the bottom of this bubble, my AAPL is at $180+ (more than doubled in less than a year) on the basis of fairly real numbers; Leopard comes out in two days and if I had had enough cash to buy the 50,000 shares of AAPL that I wanted to buy, I would be retired tomorrow, and could hire one of you schmucks to ghost-write my LBO posts for me. ;-)
Is there an LBO-talk Facebook group? I see there is a group for fans of "Doug!". Cute! ;-). Related groups:
* Multi-Tendency Socialist Unity Circle United Against Democrats * Boycott Saigon Grill
That first entry alone has got to be worth something, if not 15 billion dollars!
