My Xmas list: Apple stock
I really want a new Apple Powerbookfor Xmas, and a new Nano, oh and a Video Ipod, but what I really want is some Apple stock. My father might argue that I just bought a Powerbook less than a year ago along with an Ipod I hardly use, but that is just the point. This is how Apple is making money hand over fist. Am I pissed that a bigger and better Powerbook came out shortly after I bought mine? Yes! But it just makes me want to buy another one. I don’t even use my Ipod and yet I can’t stop, I want both the Nano and Ipod video and I am not alone. Once you start using Apple products you just want more. I am normally not a name brand person, but I love Apple. So as long as Apple can keep this up, I am sold on it as a stock. They will continue to keep current customers and draw in new ones once they start playing on any Apple product, just ask my mom after I talked her into buying an Ibook.
If that weren’t enough, here is the other reason why I am so hip on Apple: the will be our sole provider for home entertainment. This is a daring statement, but this is where they are headed. They won’t tell us this, in the same way Toyota won’t tell us that they are about to take the #1 title from GM for the same reasons: they don’t want to scare us off until its too late. Go get a coffee refill and lets sit down to talk, cause this is heavy. After just downloading my first video on Itunes, it became immediately clear to me: videos, TV show and next??? Yeah, movies, downloadable (or uploadable, depending on how you look at it) movies. They say it ain’t so, but come on…Steve Jobs frickin’ owns Pixar. Adios Netflix, Blockbusters and Hollywood Video. I suspect they know it’s coming too. It is a race to see who can make downloading movies the easiest and fastest and it seems that Apple has the head start and the customer loyalty to make it happen. Itunes just has to find a new name: Ieverything, I propose, because they will do just about everything: music, videos, movies, even home movies. Tres cool! This stock has been so hot, I know, but I think that it still is going to outperform, especially when they can finally figure out how to make my dream: Ipod wifi smart phone with video all in one, and I am guessin’ that’s not too far off.
