    Common sense is not that common. Hence Steve an others being "crazy" = alignment with common sense that intuitively resonates with a lot of people.



    Eg. Steve saying "we don't make junk"... Who would've thought that's actually a good business idea? Most of us, except those in the business world who churn out rubbish and appear to make money (in the shorter term) doing so.

    Er... When you have 90 billion in cash, banks would be literally wetting themselves in guy goo trying to loan 900 billion to Apple.



    That's right, if Apple were to go out and get a 1 TRILLION USD loan tomorrow, they would get it.
