The Design and Implementation of laffer1

I managed to create a full rough draft by about 1:30 AM for my assignment.  I uploaded one just before Midnight to beat the initial timer.  No one has proof read the first one yet so that should work on.  One part of the assignment I"m not sure if i should keep in is a reference to Fruit Fucker.  http://www.penny-arcade.com/2002/02/11

I'm not sure if that will be kosher because of the characters name.  F F is one of my favorite comic characters. 

At least I got the assignment turned in.  I'm still thinking about the website assignment.  I need to get on that soon (for both classes).  I thought about doing a MBSD installation guide site, but I'm not sure if that would fit into the assignment.  It would be time consuming to make, but its not something I'm accustomed to making which means its a challenge.  The other idea I'm still toying with is making a new Jewel site.  The existing one has tons of broken links and inconsistent styles.  I don't mind the splash, but the rest has to go.  I've thought about going retro with it.  My two favorite designs were from 1999 and 2000.  One was blue and black and the other was white, gray and light blue.  Some combination of those might be interesting. 

UBS raised its price target on APPLE INC. (AAPL) to $160 from $133, and hiked its 2007 and 2008 forecasts for iPhone shipments. "We continue to believe new products should help stimulate revenue acceleration through FY08 with the iPhone driving another leg of the 'multiplier effect'," UBS analyst Ben Reitzes wrote in a note to investors. For fiscal 2007 the brokerage raised its estimate on iPhone shipments to 950,000 units from 850,000 units. For fiscal 2008 it expects iPhone unit shipments of 8.1 million, up from its previous view of 7.4 million. UBS reiterated its "buy" rating on the stock. (Reuters 09:59 AM ET 06/07/2007)

I don't believe its possible for Apple to ship that many iPhones. My fear is the mass sell off after the iPhone ships at the end of the month. It may wait until initial weekly sales figures for the iPhone are leaked by Cingular, but it will happen.

Maybe we'll see a slight price drop for July or at least not the $4+ they were predicting.

Qualcomm has asked the President to let them circumvent the patent system.  They have used the system against every other cell phone maker in the past and in some cases gained a lot of money.  Now that the tables have turned, they want help.  I'm not a huge fan of broadcom, but after my experience with a Qualcomm phone, anything goes.
