In his recent write up, he outlined four aspects of the Apple business model that he believes will continue to propel the company forward. While he's obviously bullish about Apple, does he think investors should buy now or look for a pull back and, if so, to what price? -- McWilliams worked in the programmable logic device sector for two decades and used this valuable experience to pen what he calls a "Paradigm Paper" on the topic. With both Altera and Xilinx performing above expectations and Xilinx recently winning a socket in the new HTC Dream handset, it appears his bullish position is being well supported. Which of the two stocks does he think is most timely to buy today? -- Will AMD's decision to enter the semiconductor fabrication business ignite a turnaround in the stock? -- Why might Cisco's partnership with VMware and EMC ignite acquisition interest in data center players like F5? -- McWilliams sold off his Intersil position at over $25 and predicted that its high exposure to the PC sector left the company too vulnerable. As it turned out, he was right in this assessment. However, now that there has been a change in top management and a new business model is being cast; does he think it's time to look favorably at the stock again? -- Might investors in VMware be better off considering EMC, which owns the vast majority of VMware shares? Founded in September 2002, Next Inning's model portfolio has returned 171% since its inception versus 24% for the Nasdaq.
