    Apple Stock Hits $500 as China ‘iPad’ Trademark Case Escalates

    First, the good news: Apple shares briefly hit $500 Monday morning for the first time in its history — an impressive milestone and psychological threshold that underscores the incredible success of America’s largest technology company. Now, the bad news: Apple’s headaches in China continue, as authorities in the northern city of Shijiazhuang have reportedly confiscated dozens of iPads due to an escalating copyright dispute.

    It would have been nice if you included the G4 Cube as a hit. I still have mine and it’s a great computer. I never experienced the cracks that some owners say they noticed on the case. I have only increased the memory and installed a Powerlogix processor upgrade in the years that I’ve had it. The fact that all of the required G4 technology was packed into a compact cube was a win and should have qualified it for your list. Thanks.

    I would say one of the big misses of Apple would be the early exclusiveness of it. They would not let any company produce software for it and they were way overpriced for their product. That is why window’s based computer is way more popular. Apple limited themselves right from the start.
