I don't own any Dell stock, but I bought my Apple stock a year and a half ago... at 13.375!

It would have been nice to buy some Apple stock that cheap. And I'm a very small investor, only buying a few shares at a time (it's all I can afford).

I bought 15 shares of Dell at about $37. Of course, with all the 2:1 splits, I now have 240 shares, so I guess I've done pretty well with that too.

We started with a small money pot, which was designated as our "gambling" money. After doing well on a couple of small dels, I bought xerox and Apple. Both did well, but the xerox kept fluctuating. I sold after doubling the first time, repeated, rinsed, then repeated again. I put it all into the apple stock, and held on... which has proven to be my best ever stock purchase. I am thinking of bailing, if it drops below 70, or gets to 80...

I also have owned Macs since 1984... and would not trade for any Wintel made... OSX rocks!
