Apple Stock Up on Boot Camp News

Apple Stock Up on Boot Camp News

by , 10:20 AM EDT, April 5th, 2006

Apple's stock climbed noticeably after the announcement of Boot Camp, which lets you install and boot Windows XP on an Intel-based Mac. Apple released the public beta software Wednesday morning, and the company's stock started to rise almost as soon as the announcement was made.

Boot Camp will be a feature in the next version of Mac OS X, Leopard, which should be available some time between near the end of 2006.

Apple stock is currently trading at US$64.66, up 3.49 (5.51%).

I was just reflecting yesterday about virtualization and dual booting on the Mactel, and I thought have Dell, HP, and Gateway would be quaking in their boots. Plus, it makes MS more of an ally than a competitor for Apple. --Which is good because let's face it, you'd rather have the six hundred pound gorilla with you. I should buy some more AAPL then while it's in the low sixties, then one day of inaction and Bang! I missed the golden moment to make a great trade. Oh well.
