It may be a “low cost” Mac but it has stagnated while it’s more capable bigger brothers like the MacBook and MacBook Pro have received better and more regular update cycles.

The next update to Apple’s Mac OS X Leopard, number 10.5.2, is rumored to have support for World of Warcraft. Anyone who has ever gamed on a Mac knows that this is a big deal.

However, for a long while it has been in beta, though it was quite functional and enjoyable. Now it is updated to a fully-functional version with a new look and more functionality.

Apple’s meteoric ascent to $200 per share just this month have left many bewildered as to how the company that was, less than a decade ago, in shambles, has risen to the levels of success it currently enjoys. Naysayers have consistently denied that Apple could reach each progressive plateau of success; however, is there really any chance that Apple could ever reach, say, $600 per share?
