I hear ya bigman. I was in AAPL WAY back when I first started trading in the late 90's early 2000's when it had nothing going for it. I bought and sold a few times for a small gain. Then when they expanded their market into the Phones etc.... it took off and split over and over and over. Turned out to be one of the best stocks out there over the past years. It makes me sick sometimes to think had I only held from way back then. Oh well, Live and learn though :)
