Apple has fantastic products and a loyal customer base. I'm a recent convert myself. Their stuff is exceptionally well thought-out and they clearly place an emphasis on design as well as functionality, which is a rare thing these days. I see a bright future for them for at least several more years, although eventually they will face mounting pressure to produce something new rather than just variations on the same old electronic gizmos. They've got some very bright people working for them and I don't doubt they'll hit a few more home runs before "getting old". I wonder how long until the first thought-controlled computer comes out...
Believe it or not, I think this one is a "buy".
