    Maybe it would have helped if people believed the prank. At 10:30, AAPL was at $97.17.


    At 3:30, after the news sank in that the big announcements were an equally expensive MacBook Pro with a non-user replaceable battery and a meh-worthy iLife suite, it was at $93.


    I'm sure Jim Goldman will bitch that Jesus Diaz is responsible for the lackluster Keynote.

    @OMG! Ponies!: Nope. Goldman is blaming Blodget at Alley Insider for the stock drop.

    That's nothing, I just got an email from the Food Network asking me if my cell phone is always busy and if I need Viagra.

    I saw that as it happened, it was pretty obvious it was a joke and that they'd been hacked. Was anyone actually fooled?


    I agree it's bad for MacRumors - really makes them look like a bunch of idiots. What was their password, "macrumors"?
