China wants Taiwan because it wants Apple! Imagine if all that power fell into the hands of the communists! Can you see it? People running down the streets with iPods everywhere and all the lemmings lined up chanting... Oh my GOD!

Living on the edge, Quanta! That's like having 25% of your retirement porfolio in one stock. Well, if it's Apple, I guess that's OK.
