Understand FB's IPO price of $38 is 100 times its PE ratio. Apple Computers, on the otherhand, has good products to sell and its earning is solid and it is traded at only 10 times its PE ratio. If this 10X is used as a basis, FB's IPO price will be in the region of $4! With this backdrop, I am afraid FB, an internet virtual company, may be grossly over-priced.
