   Hmm. I doubt it. We've been on the front page of Digg many times, as well as Slashdot, and neither have been able to take us down yet. So, welcome folks from Digg.

    It can be intentional

    If price has been below 80.86$, some rich nerd may have offered 80.86$ and there it is, then. It can be done.

    Those of us who are comfortable with our sexuality, who go to the store to by our ladies sanitary needs, obviously are puzzled by some low IQ oxygen thief trying to be clever and using derogatory terms in order to garner attention. I do feel pity for you my confused and latent friend. It is folks like yourself that give us straight people a bad name. Perhaps you should go back behind the barn and play with your siblings.

    What do you mean that "there is no way that this was intentional"? Closing prices are pretty easy to manipulate. How big was the last lot of Apple sold?

    No, somehow I'm quite happe with the stock price where it is. Don't think I wanna give up $15 per share for that novelty. Of course if we could make it go to 68000 cents, that'd be cool - both for the more correct number AND my stock portfolio.
    And to those immature fledglings flaming about Digg, /. or whatever: Hush now, and take your bitching somewhere else! How can you get so worked up about a website? Who cares?

    back when In 2000 when I left Amazon, I sold all my devalued AMZN stock for much less than what I paid. Wishing to close out my portfolio completely, I sold of all my Apple Stock too; for a whopping 15$ a share. Of course I am kicking myself.

    All you have to do is have a group of investors agree that at the very last moment of trading, they will strike a deal at that amount per share. Bingo, free advertising.

    Don't be silly. Investors have other things on their minds than silly geek number games. Like profits, for example. So who would pay for such a "deal"? So much for "free" advertising...
