What should Apple do with their $40 Billion?

Isn't it interesting that when a company makes a high quality product, makes a ton of revenue, and shows the world they are running the business with extreme efficiency & profitability, that there is always someone out there that can tell such a company how to do it better?

Well, with Apple sitting on cash reserves of nearly $40 billion, a current post on Bloomberg BusinessWeek is loaded with ideas of what Apple should do with their cash, as well as a few business ideas.

Wouldn't it be a better idea to take notes on Apple's current formula for success instead of coming up with ways for them to waste their money?

Just asking.

From the files of - What the %*$!..?

It has just come to my attention that producer/actor Tom Cruise has hired famed animation director Brad Bird to direct the fourth installment of Mission: Impossible. While I do think The Incredibles is probably one of the better action movies out there, this news still comes as quite a shock. It will definitely be interesting to see how this one develops.
