Apple – Laptops are the real PRIZE. After that it's COFFEE!

I read two fantastic articles on Apple this weekend. If you own an Apple product and don’t own the stock, you will cringe. You have thought all these thoughts yourself. Yet, you have not bought the stock because – it’s too high, the iPod sales are going to slow, competition…

Here are the two articles – MUST READS:

The Apple Revolution – by David Galbraith.

Mark Morford of The San Francisco Gate. Hat tip to Brad Feld.

I fully agree with David. I have said so since I started this blog one year ago. The Apple revolution has just begun.

The real revolution is the LAPTOP – the REAL PERSONAL computer.

The next Starbucks is your Apple store. I would not be surprised to see Apple partner with Starbucks. I need to own Starbucks again and may add some tomorrow.

It is so close to over. Apple design, their retail stores, Nike partnership, Steve Job’s at Disney. A serious deal with yahoo and/or Google will cement it. With Schmidt on Apple’s board, I doubt it will be Yahoo (another huge goof by Semel and Yahoo).

The phone and email device are all that’s left. While others chase Apple in music, Apple will undoubtedly launch an A bomb when they finally decide on their phone.

Bill Gates has a new strategy. Buy hotel chains like the Four Seasons and ban the use of Apple products. Not far fetched. He already bought the hotels.
