Nerdy In-Joke
Apple's shares soared nearly five points yesterday. This is weird and I'm not sure what to do with it, because typically Apple could announce an anti-gravity fountain of youth at a Macworld Keynote and the stock price would waver and weakly fall a bit.
Yesterday, during the keynote, Apple's shares surged and mostly held on to the higher price til the close of the market. The closing price? $80.86
Yes, on the day that Apple announced Intel-based (x86) Macs, the price matches the very first x86 ever, the 8086. <spins propeller on beanie />
Oh, and Apple's up another 3 points today. Goooooo, stock options!
Oh, and also? Apple's ad heralding the arrival of Mac OS X on Intel chips...check it out...sassy and brill.

It's like some sort of Google IPO!

Hey babe, I've been out of the country with my man in london and just heard about the accident. Hope you are doing better. I did a face dive into traffic once on a bike when I was in highschool. Not very much fun. But at least you will have all these cool scars to show off at Folsom next year (I'm sure there's a fetish group devoted to chest tube scars). Seriously, hope you are doing better. Big hugs.

Hope you're feeling better and on a good road to recovery!

It's a vast right wing conspiracy!

FINALLY I no long have to be ashamed of being an Intel employee that owns all Macs!
I ofcourse immediatly placed my order for a Macbook Pro :) I can't wait for it to ship!

Congrats on the MacBook!
I want to dump my dual 2.5 GHz G5 and 20" display (old style) and buy one of the new iMacs with my employee discount.
Just seems like a machine that would serve us better in what we're using the G5 for.
