Down you go Apple, down....

[StageLeft]

Apple reporting first quaterly loss in 3 years, stocks down to $14 after a $3 loss in before-hours tradng.

To recoup their losses they're going to come out with a triangle shaped machine. Same hardware/processors but it comes in 7 different colors.

darn it! you think it'll go even lower or they will bounce back?

 

[Zucchini]

actually i think most pc makers are suffering losses right now

Die, non PC standard Die!

All Macintosh's need to die so Motorola can start making x86 and x87 chips, then Intel and AMD would both have another badass chipmaker to compete with, and we would be having $150 2.5GHZ chips within a year

 

[StageLeft]

hehe,

PC makers are taking a beating but nothing like Apple!

Motorola can't make decent chips...
They would never have been able to develop the PowerPC without IBM.
Their last chip before the PowerPCs (68060) sucked.

g4 kick butt no matter which way u cut it, yeah, its that non pc standard that makes them stand out like a turd in a punch bowl.

yes i stole that from someone

I think the first verse of a They Might Be Giants song fits here:

(From Spiraling Shape - on the Factory Showroom and Brain Candy CDs)

Down, down, down you go
No way to stop
As you fall, hear me call
No, no, no
Listen to this warning and
Consider these
Simple words of advice
Stop, stop, stop

 

[jhu]

train, you can't possibly think that the x86 chips are that great. the only thing going for them is price.

 

[Train]

i never said they were "Great"

Apple goes down? Now that's my kind of cmputer.

Wrong, apple needs to get their heads out of their a$$'s and create some useful products. Get rid of those 1 button mouses, increase speed, and allow cloning once more. The pc industry needs some good competition.. pc's are no where near being better then macs in every way
