Bullish long term on AAPL, but very recently took a bit of a 'shnitzel' (cramer lingo) in the short term, starting to regret it. Had AAPL since the late 1990's. Think that, long term, AAPL will capture market share in both computers and entertainment.

They can't attack me, I have a secure unix (Mac OS X) system here:)
Was a solaris/linux geek for many years, but once I saw Mac OS X, I made the switch.

RUSH was offering a video download of his morning updates. I think they are around a minute or so...

Never be too smug on that issue. I've been in the UNIX community since 1980. Tom Duff (creator of that wretched C language switch statement wrapped around while loop known as "Duff's device") showed off a virus at USENIX. It is dirt simple to patch the entry point on a UNIX executable to point at a new offset in the disk file. Add your choice of replacement code...including ability to infect every executable on the PATH variable and current directory. Tom did it and really hacked up a UNIX box. Just another Bell Labs hack showing off :-)

More content, more content!

As long as I have unused gigs, I will continue to lust for, yes, you guessed it, MORE CONTENT!

90 seconds. They're available with a subscription to his web site. As are show files, each hour minus commercials, etc ends up to be about 36 min.
