Why is Apple performing so much better than almost every other (if not every other) company during this recession? PING!

Apple Up! Shocking? Why? Ping!

The union is also obsolete. If not for the dems dragging the corpse along and still shoving money into them, they would be gone. I believe I would add Walmart to the list of survivors.

The genius of Steve Jobs has always been to marry his good-enough layman's understanding of technology with his world-class design eye and his preternatural understanding of cultural moods. Is that code speak for gay? Just asking.

I have been an Apple nut since the Apple II+, but I am about to abandon my Macs. My last purchase was an iMac G5 with MS Office and PC emulation. Within weeks, Apple came out with the Intel based machine, leaving me in an expensive technological backwater. I still loved Apple, though, and was just about to buy an Intel Mac when I saw Apple is dropping out of the Chamber of Commerce because it disagrees with the Chambers positions on global warming and Obamacare.
Design excellence is fine, but I have no interest in supporting loony lefty religions.
