If people are willing to buy a stock that does not pay dividends, then what is the problem? Let them invest in a company that pays dividends, like Google. What? GOOG doesnt pay either???
I think it is safe for Apple to have a generous cash reserve for the acquisition of technologies and companies that will propel them to higher and better products as well as paying for large scale projects - NC Server Farm - . They are in a race against Google to acquire the best technologies possible, so if you want dividends it is very simple. Trade your stock and buy something that pays dividends. I would rather have a 200 percent increase in my stock than a 2-3% dividend.
