Please Buy Ireland.
We'd sell it cheap as long as you give us all iPads and get the ECB and Trioka off our backs...
"Stock buy back I predict" as Yoda would say.

Apple would buy something for 34.1+ billion more then what it's worth? I don't think so.
They'll announce that the spaceship campuses really a giant arcship, which will:
- transport Jobs's earthly remains to the stars
- set up apple as the first interstellar company.

He can't read this whilst he's sunbathing on his own private island, sipping cocktails out of a scantily clad native woman's naval..
$2.65 F4Q dividend, $10B stock buyback this year, $45B over 3 years. Stock halted.
Maintain large cash war chest for opportunities.

So it was a boneheaded assessment was it? What are Apple going to start doing from July?
oh wait.... paying a small token dividend.
I would suggest you learn to actually read a post before spouting off, the same goes for the one person with 5 accounts who suddenly down voted my original post.
I said at the time Job's was right to stop paying a dividend.
No doubt you'll soon see this and do exactly the same.
Erm. I did which is why I also included shares. Thanks for your insight though; it was very useless.
As for the value of the 2 companies, I assume that you know that Samsung's $200 bill market cap is not comparable to Apple's cash reserves.
Secondly, I'd put good money on the fact that Apple's new HQ is more expensive the the skyscraper Samsung dwell in. Damn, why did I bite?
P.S. plus, my original post was purely tongue in cheek.

Yep, the founder is dead. Now the bean counters proceed to milk the company for all it's worth.
Oh I know. But there were some stories out there about a possible soft weekend because many stores still have stock and the lines on launch day weren't as big as last year. Of course this iPad was available for pre-order.
Or perhaps it's actually a "correction" - IE - something the company should have been doing for a long time now and wasn't able to. I don't think you can simplify the reasoning just because you're not happy with the decision for whatever reason.
Steve was a great marketeer and had great creativity/micromanagement. But that didn't make him the worlds best BUSINESS man. He had and Apple still has a great team for that.
The future of Apple will be an interesting one. But I don't think we can call this move "milking" the company for all its (not it's) worth.
