No end in sight to Apple's rally
 
Wow, Apple stock is up almost 5 percent so far today. Interesting AP story here http://biz.yahoo.com/ap/041122/apple_stock_4.html

"The bottom line from our survey is that 13 percent of iPod users in our sample users were formerly PC users that, following the purchase of their iPod, have already either purchased a Mac (6 percent) or are planning to buy a Mac within 12 months (7 percent)," Munster wrote.

I'd be curious to see how many of that 6 percent made a full switch and how many just got one because they wanted both a PC and Mac. Also, of the 7 percent 'planning to buy', I'd like to know how many will actually buy. I'm a PC user and have been 'planning to buy' a Mac within the next 12 months for about 3 years now.

AAPL closed the day with an 11.2% gain. Sure, what goes up tends to go down someday, but the past year has been truly remarkable for Apple so somebody must be buying their products (as well as their stock). Look at their performance vs HP, Dell and Gateway http://finance.yahoo.com/q/bc?t=1y&s...ll%2Chpq%2Cgtw

i think a great deal of it has to do with mac os x and its *nix roots.
