First, let me gloat.  I bought $49,761 of AAPL on Oct 8.  My investment is now worth $54,933. That's 10.5 percent growth in less than a month. Hah! I bought the stock because I was going to buy everything Apple sold from now until forever. The last product I had yet to purchase was the company's stock. That was a mistake. The beauty of owning the stock is that you can use the increase in value to fund the hardware habit. So far so good.  My very dear friend Sylvia Paull bought an iPod a month ago. In a blog post today she calls it a gateway drug. Having read early reviews of the new operating system, she's ready to buy a 24 inch iMac.  I recognize the signs.  It's like a virus I tell you.

THERE is never a right time to buy technology. Something cheaper, faster and better specified will be on the market before you have even got your product out of its box.

Chris Brogan asks a question... What if you had $300K to spend on a luxury, an impulse buy, not something you need, what would you spend it on? I just answered -- I'd buy 30 full-page ads in the NY Times. What would you buy?

A customer filed a $54 million lawsuit against Best Buy for losing an $1100 laptop she took in for service. The reason, exposure to identity theft.  It's about time vendors were forced to recognize the value of customers' data. I recall how the chief genius at the Apple store in Emeryville complained that they would have to eat the cost of the drive in a deal they made with the manufacturer. Someday they'll have a clue that the data on most drives is worth far more than the hardware, and that their potential liability, if the data ends up in the hands of an identity thief, is also much greater.

Contro le omologazioni di un mercato che ancora subisce il fascino di vitigni internazionali come Chardonnay e Cabernet Sauvignon. Contro le multinazionali dei lieviti (usati per vinificare) che appiattiscono i gusti nascondendo il territorio.

I saw an ad in yesterday's NY Times that offered the complete New Yorker magazine archive, including all the cartoons and ads, going back to 1920-something for a bit more than the hard disk would cost. The ad was from J&R, the company that makes the product is Pexagon. $149. Sounds like there might be DRM. I asked for something like this from the music business. A hundred gigs of popular music for $500, all pre-installed on the disk without DRM.  Someone at the New Yorker had this idea too? It's a good one. Bulk content for collector types. Another source of revenue. I want to run my own personal radio station, so having every song of a certain genre or from a certain period makes the diff.

You have to hand it to management at Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia (NYSE: MSO). They&#39;re staying in the box and taking their cuts at the ball despite some pretty horrific trends in advertising.
