Apple is worth less than...........

1 Gallon of Diesel in the U.K in the next 5 years.

Wow.. great post.

This could be a good one, Bob!

That is amazing when put in that context. The mind boggles on where they could take that given more time. Are they charitable too?

Pays to make these comparisons so people can relate. Especially helpful when you look at debt; for example, what a trillion of anything actually equals. One trillion seconds is longer than recorded history.

More? OK, this one is rather interesting and it is possible I made it up. Likely not, however. I wanted to ask Professor Wikepedia, but he is drunk.

Apparently, you could fit every man, woman, and child in the state of Texas. They would easily fit. We wont try it because I love Texas. Anyway, the volume of Loch Ness is 7.44 cubic km and apparently, the entire world population will only take up 1.93 km.

million: six zeroes
billion: nine zeroes
trillion: twelve zeroes
quadrillion: fifteen zeroes
quintillion: eighteen zeroes
sextillion: twenty-one zeroes
septillion: twenty-four zeroes
octillion: twenty-seven zeroes
novillion: thirty zeroes
decillion: thirty-three zeroes
undecillion: thirty-six zeroes
duodecillion: thirty-nine zeroes
tredecillion: forty-two zeroes
quattuordecillion: forty-five zeroes
quindecillion: forty-eight zeroes
sexdecillion: fifty-one zeroes
septendecillion: fifty-four zeroes
octodecillion: fifty-seven zeroes
novemdecillion: sixty zeroes
vigintillion: sixty-three zeroes


So when will we need a new one, Appletillion perhaps?

AWesome, but we can'd admit that the Apple's value, as its product are so popular, maybe not only herd behavior, but really worthy that, just read this "5 Reasons to Buy iPad 2", I think there are more list of reason to buy an iPhone/iPad...
