    Tuesday has announcements of the release of the new iPad. The tower should be released as well. It seems things are looking good!

    Siri stock at 4.10! Ok, so I am a small timer. I did buy it at 1.25 though. A nice profit.

    Kramer thinks this stock should split 4-1; so it will entice retail markets. Personally I think this is a bad idea. I think lower priced stocks are a bit more volatile.

    That is a nice surprise. Maybe they're going to start treating OSX just like mobile. iOS and Android (and I assume WP) are free, why not OSX? You get free software upgrades on a $500 phone, why not on a $2000 laptop.

    Exactly! This will give the consumer more incentive to buy their computers. And because most the window's units; they cannot offer free OS. Big advantage for apple, IMO.

    Also, they've been refreshing the OS every year. Most people don't upgrade their OS, at least that I know. I know I've never bought a new version of OSX and I'm on my 4th ibook/macbook/mbp. Now everyone with a reasonably new Mac will be (or can be) using the same version, which is probably good for selling apps.

    Only $1999!

    That's REALLY expensive. More money than I have. Maybe barfo can afford it, though.

    Downloading Mavericks on my laptop now :)

    Thats what I thought. I bought a 17" laptop a few months ago for just over $400. I'd have to trade FIVE of those in to downgrade to a smaller sized apple version. No doubt Apple makes cool stuff but you pay a hefty premium for it.

    $1999 is the 15" model and pro. That would be upgrading from your $400 piece.

    Then remember that a $100 upgrade every year for the os
