    I couldn't give two... about this new building honestly.
    I think you need the read the reason why Steve designed this Campus, the idea and value behind it. 

    I wish there could be a book on all the design details and construction of Apple Campus 2.

  • Apple TV won't get Amazon Prime Video until Apple agrees to 'acceptable business terms'

    Since Apple doesn't charge developers a cent to have their video subscription services on AppleTV, we can see Amazon's idea of "acceptable business terms", involves either handing over iTunes account information or paying Amazon a stipend. 
    That is if the subscription services is free. If not, then Apple take a 30% cut in the subscription IF they are signed up via the App.

  • Prospect of Indian Apple Stores still on the table, minister says

    Do China block foreign import of Intel Chips? Instead hoping China will one day catch up with Intel on both architecture and Fab?

    The whole idea of 30% sourcing should be for Low End Commodity and High Volume Manufacturing. The whole point of Local Sourcing and some form of protectionism is to create MORE jobs for local.

    Sometimes you can just understand why India is still so Far behind China.

    I've been asking for the return of the Xserve including setting it up as a blade server for years. Since Apple is working with both IBM and SAS, why shouldn't their be a small business server product available from Apple instead of having to use some linux server hardware from companies no Mac user likes. IBM dumped their small server division onto Lenovo so why can't Apple get back into the server business for Mac/iOS users? An Apple-ARM blade server could fit in something the size of an old Mac mini, with USB-C (Thunderbolt 3) as the main I/O port for storage and everything else. The new Apple server would need to be able to run a local version of iCloud so small businesses and families could make use of all the current and new iCloud storage capabilities without always having to go to Apple's servers when there isn't a reason to send your data outside your home or business (we're talking total encryption as well with adequate firewalls and intrusion detection capabilities). If Apple really wants to help people secure their data, then let's get back to being able to securely manage or local data.

    I really like Apple getting back into the server business. And I too believe in a small self hosting server appliance. It would be an iCloud Appliance, that gives you Email, iWork , backup etc all without going to their Server. It would be a front end to iCloud. Providing Email, Chat, Calander, iWork solution. This is a lot difference To OSX server which is not an appliance at all.
