Apple posts great quarterly numbers

Egg is on quite a few faces today, that is if anyone still even cares to be correct anymore

in the "anal-ysts" category. WIthout knowing the real numbers of Mac shipments,

so called know it alls were saying how shipments were down and market share was down

and sales were down etc., weeks before Apple said their peace today. It's like local TV news

where you've got all this time to fill between the commercials whether you've got any

real news or not, so just put on police chases and arrests and how to ask your doctor

for the latest drug the pharmaceutical companies are pushing you to buy.


Will humans ever get to a point where they trust themselves to make their own

decisions instead of so-called experts, authority figures, celebrities and people

with more money than they have? I know it's easier to just follow, otherwise

their would be no religion. But we have got to break free from all this hero worship

and learn the facts on our own and make our own decisions. With the web this is now

possible in ways never before imaginable. But actual, physical legwork is not

to be discounted either, as the seeing-is-believing test can be quite helpful as well.


All you have to do if you want to figure out what the deal with Apple is, is ask someone

what music player they use, what cell phone they have or just go into an Apple Store

at any time of the day, on any day. If you do that small amount of basic research and you

can't see what's going on with Apple, then yes, by all means listen to anyone with a column

in print or online telling you Apple is crap because they only have 7% market share or whatever.

Lame brains all.
