Wow - ok. This is getting kind of creepy. I'm not sure whether to be flattered or a little scared that you put so much time into researching me, but it's certainly off topic.

Let's continue like this:
If you wish to continue discussion about the other thread, you should do it there.
If you wish to talk about Apple's rising share price, here is a good place.
If you wish to send insults and analyses of my past posts, I think private message would be most appropriate.

Sometimes it's better just to disagree with someone rather than getting so obsessed.

Oh it doesn't take much at all to find such things, especially when it comes to calling out someone else on their bs. That is clearly what inspired your cute little post as you danced around the rest. While I agree with you that spending even an ounce of time on anything dealing with you is a waste, it wasn't much time at all.

You've been off topic since you've joined imore. Try taking in some lessons before giving them. It'll work wonders for you.

Isn't it funny how people who like to instigate become sudden etiquette experts. Luckily in this forum such posters are not allowed to disrupt. There are no appeasers here.

Very interesting.

I did answer your question, and quite clearly as well. You're the equivalent of a REDACTED, kicking up dirt and then saying "I have a couple of black co-workers, does this not make me part of your community?"

And finally, I find it hard to believe that this is necessary in a forum about mobile telephones, but I have no choice but to respond to this. Claiming some equivalence of a discussion about stock prices with KKK membership is so crass as to be almost beyond belief. Are you even aware of what you are saying? I will give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that you aren't.

I have reported this post to the forum administators. What they choose to do with it is up to them, but whatever the outcome, please try to keep some sense of perspective.

Let's get back on topic, please. Thanks

I apologize for letting the worst in me come out publicly and for deviating from the topic. I will no longer play part in the distractions.

As for the Apple stock rising, it is always an interesting animal to follow. Cook several times this year has spoken about his excitement for new products this year. He didn't go into detail of course, but was adament that Apple had some great things in the pipeline. We are approaching September now having not seen anything new through the first 8 months. So, either 4th quarter is going to be an amazing one, or we will be left scratching our heads as to what he was eluding to.

Hopefully for investors, the two rumored versions of the 6 come to fruition, Apple conitinues to expand in other markets such as China and India, and the iWatch, new iPads, etc make their debuts. Either way, Apple is far, FAR from "doomed".

Wish I had some spare cash.....

All time high! But wait....I thought Apple was dead! They lose marketshare all of the time! ;)

PS: That Blackberry stock looks sad above the Apple stock haha :)

Yes, BlackBerry stock is low in price/share but is growing month over month. So depending on how you look at it, BB is the better buy at the moment if trading daily. Apple is the better look term choice.

I'm actually considering selling on the spike over the next couple of weeks and then re-buying in early 2015 on the typical winter lull. I've toyed with the idea in the past, but I think I might pull the trigger this year and take some profit to move around.

Not a bad idea. I play a virtual stock market (not real money), and I bought Apple while it was low, and now I've made some serious cash of all my shares. I bought it when it was down at the $60-70 mark, and now it has shot up to over $100 per share :)

Market is reacting to the celebrity picture hacking story. I expected this yesterday. It will correct itself.

My how ignorance abounds! And all because some celebs thought it cute to use weak passwords like their dog's name or some such nonsense.

Yeah when will celebrities (or anyone really) learn that if you don't want naked pics to show up on the Internet then don't take them!!! Otherwise, someone, somehow will find them and put them there.

The stock market is full of the same idiots that we see in our every day lives...the same idiots that react to media witch hunts with shallow reporting (like what we saw with these leaks). The beauty is, they also suffer from extreme ADD, and will have forgotten about these leaks by next Tuesday, LOL!

Not only weak passwords, social engineering/phishing is ubiquitious. It is extremely easy to be fooled into giving up information. Heck, it happened to me a month ago at work, I failed a test email sent to illustrate how sophisticated current attempts are.

But that doesn't matter to the anti Apple trolls. They've gone nuts with this. In some cases, sure, it's not an issue for their platform because, simply, they are not worth the effort. Fact is, there are two dominant platforms and both have cloud solutions integrated into the platform. A third has a cloud solution but the platform is just not as mainstream. And the third....well....you can't be more secure than the absence of a true cloud solution. Security by obscurity is not security.

Hard lesson. Not trying to blame the victims, but that is a fact. I wouldn't necessarily say don't take them, just be ultra careful.
