Apple to surpass Dell
Apple is closing in on Dell's marketcap. Following its record $5.7 billion revenues and 14 million iPod shipments in the December/holiday quarter and new Intel-based Macs, Apple's stock is as well as raised their price targets. The official December quarter financial results will be released next week on Wednesday, January 18, 2006. [Marketcap numbers drawn from Yahoo!]
AAPL getting too hot?

OK Apple has 25% the market valuation of Microsoft? I love Apple but doesn't that seem a bit 'frothy'?
No, I am not selling my AAPL just yet... wish I'd bought a lot more however!

To have gotten these first Mactel machines out so quickly and which such (apparent) success shows that Apple is really on top of its game. They are accumulating increasing power in the entertainment world, and the rapidly expanding production of 3rd-party accessories gives them additional stability. I suspect that their stock will be over $100 by 3rd quarter.

Success? Excuse me, but these things aren't even shipping yet. And, as such, no one knows how reliable they are, how well they'll run, what kind of battery life they have, etc, etc, etc.

The only 3rd-party accessories market I see expanding is the iPod market. The mac market is stagnant, if not dwindling, in this area. And, reports have it that MWSF is currently just a fraction of itself, covering less then half the convention hall.

The Core Duo (Intel) iMacs are available right now. They were available on Tuesday when they were announced.
