But it did creep and vault over that $154, which allowed it to remain the biggest computer hardware company (i.e. bigger than HP by about $3 billion).

Not long ago, Steve Jobs was asked about the stock splits. While the company had several of these in the past (as recently as February 2005), he said that he will no longer split it. There is really no point, other than making it a bit more affordable for the investors below poverty line, who cannot afford even $150 for a single share of stock. Perhaps he is hoping to grow Apple the way Berkshire-Hathaway has grown (today's stock price: $129,000 per share!), turning away all but serious investors with plenty of money.

Either way, it's good to be AAPL stock holder. There's still plenty of steam left in it.

I doubt it. I think Apple will adopt Google's approach of never splitting the stock.
