Good choice putting $4,000 rims on your 1990 Honda Civic. That's like Betty White going out and getting her tits done.

Sadly, Apple stock has been way overvalued for years.
I don't think Jobs had been doing the company any good for years as well.
I don't think he was the visionary that many portray him to have been.
I suspect you will see stock values slowly wind down in the future.

But who knows, maybe the new iPad will sell like . . . (add humorous related analogy here).

Wait, they added more processing power, made the screen hella gorgeous, and somehow didn't compromise the (already crazy long) battery life and you guys aren't happy?
