Typically, these high risk investments offer a significant risk of failure, but the payoff is large enough that angel and venture investors make a fortune - and end up with large equity stakes in fast growing companies.



    Apple should set aside about $5 B for that type of startup capital ventures.


    I would have thought Apple already has a venture capital arm. Did you check to see if they do? It's something both Google and Microsoft have been doing for some time and I'd be surprised if Apple hasn't also. It's almost common sense for big techs.

    Most states do require shoppers to pay sales tax on purchases from Amazon. The issue is that states don't have the authority to make Amazon handle the collection. Consumers are responsible for remitting the tax in their own. States have little ability to enforce this and most consumers ignore (or are unaware) of the requirement to pay sales tax (sometimes called "use tax")on all internet purchases.

    Similarly, a shopper who crosses a state line to buy at a lower tax rate, may need to make up the sales tax difference when they bring the purchase home.

That's where I'd start.


    So you didn't find his Palo Alto home? Jeez what kind of detective are you? image

    This isn't news. There was an article not that long back that they were expanding their presence in Nevada and would consolidate the offices to a new location. Seems like the head count was to be 600 when they were done. I think Apple decided to put more people in the state so it didn't look like a complete and total tax scam. Will have to find the article.

    Apple got approval to build a data center and get a tax break outside of Reno. I do remember they were to consolidate the the capital folks to that site. The AppleInsider article doesn't mention the relocation of their other employees to the vicinity.

    If I find that specific reference, I will list it.

    I'm less concerned with finding out where Braeburn moved to than figuring out who managed to move Cupertino four hours "east" of San Francisco . . . I'm sure there's a mapping error joke in there somewhere, but I think I'll pass.

    A quick bloomberg search reveals they are located at:


     


    6900 South McCarran Blvd

    Suite 3020

    Reno NV 89509


     


    It seems they have added some staff, so they probably just moved to accommodate more bodies.

    It poorly says Reno is 4 hours east of San Francisco and that it is the closest significant city in Nevada. Piss poor wording is somewhat par for the Appleinsider course these days.

    They've moved to Lakeside & McCarran. There is a sign in front of the building (it's small). http://blogs.rgj.com/renorebirth/2013/03/08/apple-reno-office-still-here/
