    Never mind. I was just appreciating the stock's performance - I have no desire to get into a discussion about capitalism or drug dealers.

      That means apple could shut up shop and give everyone in the world $100 If it was spread around according to current wealth, it could solve poverty world-wide at a stroke!

        How many people remember Michael Dell's famous 1997 quote when asked what he'd do to fix Apple? "What would I do? I'd shut it down and give the money back to the shareholders," [^] At the closing bell today Apple's market capitalization is $774.7 billion. That's right folks, bigger than Microsoft ($362.2B) and Google ($362B)... combined! Probably enough left over to buy Dell. Regardless of how you feel about Apple products you have to admit that AAPL has been an amazing stock since 1997.

        Statistically, this must be true for a lot of stocks since 1997.

            Maybe, but very few have gone from near bankruptcy to being the most valuable company in the world.

              You obviously don't understand either word. But that's not surprising, the amount of capitalist indoctrination and propaganda you appear to have been subjected to.

                  Less so than your lack of knowledge of terms that you just drop into discussion, apparently. Idiots who call themselves communists and idiots who call themselves socialist are just as ready to kill each other as idiots who call themselves capitalist, muslim, christian, or nihilist. Only idiots who have been indoctrinated into one of the other groups of idiots believe that communism and socialism are in any way allied. All any of the groups of idiots do is invent bollocks that states that their brand of idiocy is superior to all the other idiots' idiocies. Your telling me that capitalistic gains are marvellous falls on ears that are just as deaf to idiots who tell me I should worship one African god or another. Just keep your money-based religion out of the Lounge, eh? The rule is there for a reason.

                    You may want to see a therapist, pal. You obviously have some serious issues that need to be worked out. Good luck. :|

                      Just my way of letting the trolls know that bothering me is too much trouble. Off you go, then. Go try to annoy someone else.

                        Huh? You're the one who responded to my original post crying about Apple's choice of products and product placement. Then you went off on a tangent about the evils of money and drug dealers before finally delivering a diatribe about "idiots" being indoctrinated into the "religions" of various political and economic theories. By every definition, you're the troll in this "discussion". Maybe its time for a vacation... :wtf:

                          No, I invited you to step off your capitalist pulpit by reminding you of history, and you decided to insult me. That is how trolls behave. I'm sure you'll think twice before doing it again.

                              So personally accusing someone of being a "hater" is your very best behaviour? You just didn't want to be reminded that the capitalist idols you adore had had to be rescued from oblivion, so anyone who mentioned it must obviously be a "hater", mustn't he? Just like anyone who doesn't worship Allah is a "hater" to the most heavily indoctrinated and deluded followers. What a charmer you are. Keep your religion out of the Lounge.

                                Swings and roundabouts. In the early and mid 90s no one would have predicted that MS wouldn't continue to dominate. Apple's time will pass, eventually.
