Yes, you a beacon of confidence in darkest of times. A real trooper.
You are pretty funny, Guth. But this is accurate. My optimistic nature is widely known, even in the face of great adversity.

Here's my secret: I'm Superman.

Apple's chief executive Tim Cook doesn't see success in Microsoft's strategy to have Windows 8 power everything from notebooks to tablets to hybrid transforming devices, comparing their convergence to a refrigerator with toaster functions tacked on the side.
Tim Cook is a very smart man. He agrees with me about this. ;-) I have to give him credit for putting it very, very well, too.

Windows 8 = Toasterator
That's hilarious. Of course, when Microsoft sees that people don't really want Toasterators, they will try to fix things by adding a built-in automatic dog polisher.

MacDailyNews Take: The answer to the headline is: We didn’t and neither did most of the MacDailyNews regulars.

People who underestimate Tim Cook, earnestly or not, are like potholes that cause bags full of filthy, beautiful money to fall out of armored cars right into our laps.


Apple: Why did you doubt them?

Gross margin was 47.4 percent compared to 41.4 percent in the year-ago quarter.

Phenomenal! The cry babies who keep on wailing about the competition and how it's going to erode Apple's margins are overstating their case, IMHO. Don't forget Apple is preparing for this eventual pressure by co-owning the supply chain, as evidenced by all the equipment purchases and capex spending. Also, distracting litigation over patents is also going to be reduced as Cook has expressed disdain for it.

I don't know why I typed $13.39 when it was $12.5

Actually, it's only $12.30 ;)

From WSJ comments to an Apple story:

Looks like all the Apple Haters are disappointed again.

So crawl back into your hole and wait till next quarter.

Well, I helped. Bought a new iPhone for myself and an iPad for my wife. She says it's the best gift she's ever received. I heard her say, "Have I told you lately how much I love you?" I look at her and she's talking to the iPad...

Haven't you heard? Competition is going to crush their margins. Like it did this past quarter.

Bwaahaaaahahahaaaaa.
