      Mr Verke
      In case you have not figured it out, anything critical of Apple/Jobs or other Apple things is actually worse than being critical of Nobama in a discussion with Oprah. Those neat little IPhones automatically contact each other and their owners when a negative appears in print so they can immediately attack the author. Good luck with your next point(s)       Aug 30 02:03 PM

      There was some "legal" wranglings about the name. I thought it had to be purchased from CSCO or someone. All part of the hype?

      Let me know where you all saw and used the Bold to justify your observations and comments to vilify a product from a company with larger market share and equal potential for growth than your snappy u tube player. Aug 24 11:51 AM
    • Financial Crisis: Getting Old [view article]
      I reviewed a lot of published stuff for the past 12 months and see that once we were "contained", then the 2nd half of '08 would see the beginning recovery, now we "uncertain" and "maybe" half done. Bankers are not smart enough to know where they are and most intelligent ones are in other industries. No transparency then no buy. Statements on CNBC saying "it really hard to analyze Big banks" are useless as are their accountants. Everyone is just ponying up to the chow line, poor ignorant homeowners, banks, broker/dealers and next the autos followed by the airlines. We don't need to worry if Nobama wants socialism, we seem to already have it. Aug 23 01:09 PM
    • Dynamite Drug Stock - Cramer's Lightning Round (8/21/08) [view article]
      If bear was "sold" at $10 then if WAMU sold/bought will it be for a similar price? The question is will it sell for more than the $4.00 stock price? No one knows, so it kinda like a roulette red/black bet. Aug 23 12:45 PM
    • How Should The Federal Government Help Homeowners? [Housing Tracker] [view article]
      nothing wrong with beginning financial education earlier, but most teachers are not qualified to teach because they do not know. The world is only payment driven and that will not change because business promotes it. Aug 04 10:56 AM
    • The Housing Bill: One Step Closer to the United States of Zimbabwe? [view article]
      I would rather the US support our country and its needs for what ever reason, even if I disagree with many, rather than sending more money for AIDS in Africa, and support of the UN. We probably did not need to bail out all the S&Ls in the 80s but we did. Without housing, state and local governments have reduced cash flow which will cost me more in the long run. Mr Kim, being honest is not dangerous and U2 can give all their money to support what they want where they when they want. Jul 29 12:19 PM
    • Banking Sector: Band-Aids Just Won't Do It [view article]
      there is always someone willing to pay to buy something that may not have the value specified. the government supports home ownership in every form to allow creation of a tax base for states and local governments and as r e problems arise and foreclosures increase than tax revenue declines and the need for more taxpayers becomes apparent. just look at the bail out bill closely and see how government benefits, if banks take the write downs...a big if. lets not forget about other debt: builder construction loans, home equity loans, purchase money home improvement loans, credit cards(see amex), automobile loans/leases (see chrysler), student loans, etc.
      If banks can convince everyone that only the foreclosures are bad and everything else is ok, then everyone will be willing to accept the market declines are not as bad as thought and maybe I should buy. The new paper will replace the bad paper, securitize it and sell it and business as usual. Oh yes, since tax revenue has declined we (Fed/States) will need to raise taxes to replace the lost tax income
      but probably only temporarily (right). please name one government program that is not a ponzi scheme.       Jul 27 01:58 PM
    • Mortgage REIT Magic [view article]
      if it looks like a scam, and seems like a scam, and finds support in paper "valuations" then it is probably too good to be true and isn't. Jul 27 01:42 PM
    • The Top 5 Looming Financial Issues [view article]
      it is not the presidential candidates, it is the idiots elected to the congress who only do what the lobbyist pay them to do. People who elect the pelosi,reids, kennedy, schumers of the world will never allow election of someone willing to do something for the country. the defeatocrats and their messiah certainly will not solve any problem. the republicians are inept in politics and have no leadership or ideas. liberalism is a mental illness since feeling replace actions and shows caring for those less fortunate. the problem remains, but people feel good about "helping" the cause.

    • Steve Jobs: Honesty Is the Best Policy [view article]
      keep lowering your prices and your margins and things will continue to decline. keep quite, lack transparency, don't pay dividends, and who knows how many more "investors" will buy your stock. Didn't Enron have a great PR capability as well? Jul 27 12:46 PM
    • Apple: Economy Is Depressed [view article]
      if people are cutting back on spending for back to school, vacations, auto purchases, and house payments, I think they would be inclined to purchase a less costly mobile telephone as an interim measure pending a recovery in future confidence. appeletts are a cult like band of lemmings wanting the newest touchy techie thing to show off to their band. kinda like $450 sunglasses.
