Observer Comments
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.
