Apple worth more than Google, but so what?
—
There was plenty of virtual fist bumping among Apple fans yesterday about the perceived value of Apple as a company now being more than Google, and that's great. And meaningless. One need only look back to late last year and the words of one four-figure analyst to see how ephemeral that measure of value can be. With about three weeks left until the Keynote at Macworld Expo 2008, the surge on ...
