Apple Won't Get Crushed By Recession

Apple's stock has been cut in half this year as investors worry sick that, as the recession takes hold, consumers and companies won't be able to afford its slick, expensive products anymore. Many analysts have also noted that most of the growth in the laptop market is at the super-low-price end, and that Apple still doesn't play there. The lack of the announcement of an $800 laptop last week further fueled these fears.
