1. While individual employees with stock options care about Apple's stock price, I pretty sure that what Apple as a company cares about is the billions it banks, quarter in, quarter out, regardless of the stock price. 2. I don't think the $330 iPad is going to win over many considering a $200 alternative. If you followed the D&P show, you could see Apple all but blatantly reach out to its intended target: institutions, specifically educational ones - the bulk buyers. 3. What really got my attention was the new iMac. The new form factor (5mm at the edges) is really something. Nice to see Apple get a little serious about some other aspects: 8GB of RAM as a base config and USB 3. No optical was no surprise but was a little bit at the lose of Firewire and the mic port.

Then shot back up 10 and dropped back down 8, typical stock market playground activity. Of course, the "experts" on Wall Street thought the mini's price was too high so the stock tumbled. Is it too high? Only time will tell and after the first several million
are sold, we'll know the answer.

As far as a 1984 Trans Am, http://www.cars-on-line.com/52569.html, they cost more now than when they first came out. As for people wanting them, you need to watch the restored/custom automobile auctions
before making a comment like that.

It dropped over 20 bucks a share at the moment the mini was announced. That's about 30 billion if my calculations are correct. But not just stock. It's a repainted used car (a nice car, but the 1984 trans-am was a marvel at the time too... Don't think
anyone wants one now).

Can you really say the stock price is related to this? The price over the last month or two more likely reflects the iPhone 5 anticipation than anything to do with an iPad mini...
