As far as I know, LV purses don't sell for a mere $200.

I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt.

Just admit it. The Nano will win many design contests on its looks and function and is reasonably priced to boot.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter.

I don't feel it's reasonably priced, it has less storage than the product it replaced.Originally posted by DanS

And I'm also not a fan of its looks. The black iPod Nano scratches ridiculously easily, and it looks like it's anorxeic (it's disproportionately tall).
It's the same thing that makes the iMac G5s ugly, in that they look like a fat kid with all of that massive amount of whitespace at the bottom. It looks like a really, really old white LCD."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."

Verto sends word via MSN (he's banned) that he concurs that the new iMacs look terrible."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."

I don't like the looks of the new G5s either. But the Mini is a very nice looking machine.

Apple's Profits Surge, but Stock Slips 10%
By REUTERS
Published: October 11, 2005
SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - Apple Computer Inc. on Tuesday posted a quarterly profit that quadrupled as the company sold 6.5 million iPods but revenue fell short of Wall Street expectations, sending shares down 10 percent in after-hours trading.
Apple said net income for its fiscal fourth quarter rose to $430 million, or 50 cents a share, from $106 million, or 13 cents a share, a year ago. Revenue rose 56 percent to $3.68 billion.
Earnings included 12 cents per share in tax-related benefits.
Analysts had expected a net profit of 36 cents a share, on average, on revenue of $3.74 billion, according to Reuters Estimates. In July, the company forecast fourth-quarter revenue of about $3.5 billion and earnings per share of about 32 cents.
Apple has about a 75 percent share of the entire digital music player market, according to market research firm NPD Group. Last month, it unveiled its pencil-thin iPod nano, which replaced the iPod mini, then the best-selling iPod version.
For the current, first quarter Apple said it expects net earnings per share of about 46 cents on revenue of $4.7 billion. That earnings estimate includes the expected cost for expensing stock options.
Excluding items, Apple said it expects to earn about 49 cents per share, the company said.
Analysts currently expected Apple to earn an average of 46 net cents per share on revenue of $4.49 billion. Excluding items, Apple is expected to earn 48 cents per share.
Shares of Apple fell to $46.28 in extended trade on the Inet electronic brokerage. In regular trade, the stock closed up $1.22, or 2.42 percent, at $51.59 on Nasdaq.
Apple said that shipments of its signature Macintosh computers rose 48 percent from the year-ago quarter.
Shares of Apple trade at about 30 times estimated net earnings per share for its fiscal 2006 ending in September and shares of No. 1 PC maker Dell Inc. (Nasdaq
ELL - news), which is focused on volume sales, trade at about 17 times its estimated net earnings per share for its fiscal 2007 ending in January of that year.

You are doomsaying the failure of Apple, despite the fact that Apple has perfectly cornered a very viable market.Originally posted by Asher

Oh. I didn't gather that from the fact that you always predict an abject failure everytime Apple launches a new roduct

Apple's going to become a consumer electronics maker?
I thought they already were, and were branching into computers.
What with their advertisment saying that the Mac Mini was from the people who made the iPod...B♭3Comment
