OK so they're not guessing, but they're still biased. I'd like to see them correctly call a bad quarter before I'm convinced.

- czhiddy 16y agoWhen was the last time Apple had a bad quarter? :-)
- hugh3 16y ago1997? http://www.windowsitpro.com/article/news2/apple-posts-708-million-quarterly-loss.aspx http://www.windowsitpro.com/article/news2/apple-posts-708-mi... "The red ink just won't stop flowing from Apple Computer these days, as the company posted a tidy US$708 million loss this quarter. This is only one year after posting a $740 million loss in the same quarter of 1996. Apple said the loss contains a one-time $155 million charge for restructuring and a $375 million write-off to cover the acquisition of NeXT... "We will return to profitability," said [CEO] Amelio, apparently to himself. Everyone else had stopped listening, except of course "MacWeek," which reported this story as "Company reports $1.6 billion in revenue." I guess that's one way to look at it" (Fun fact: if you'd bought $10,000 worth of Apple shares in 1Q of 1997 they'd be worth eight hundred thousand dollars nowadays.)
