Over 3,000,000 Macs sold. I remember earlier this decade hoping they'd sell a million Macs in a quarter.

Jeebus, I was just thinking the other day, maybe I should get some more AAPL.

I should listen to myself more.

Wow. Unbelievable. I think its safe to say that AAPL has busted through that $200 resistance point and will remain above $200 for the foreseeable future. Its long overdue IMO.

Really? It's barely over $200.

I know its barely over $200, but it should have been around the $200-205 price range months ago. I think these new earnings statements, coupled with all of the analysts upgrades and buy recommendations over the past few months should help keep the stock at or above $200 going forward from here. Then again, it's always interesting to see what sort of market correction will be made when a stock makes such a big jump in one day. To me, this price is supported more by solid numbers and profits now rather than speculation like it has been in the past.

It's interesting, in light of the fact that Dell is slipping in sales, faster than it's other big competitors, and it has been, or soon will be, surpassed by Acer.
