Short version: “We have a buttload of cash. Here’s what we’re going to do with it.”
Yep.
I like MG Siegler’s thoughts about this – possibly purchasing Samsung or building their own manufacturing plants overseas.
Buttload? My brain is having a short imagining that. Must be a new american saying to replace ‘boatload’.
A couple years ago, I would have been rooting for them to buy Adobe. But truthfully I can’t imagine them even being on their radar anymore…
Perhaps they’ll invest in educational infrastructure and incentives in order to encourage more people to get into engineering so that there’ll eventually be enough American engineers so that Apple can build factories here.
I find the short version funny. I wonder what’s in store for Apple fans. What about the Apple printer that Steve Jobs originally thought about?
Been there. He pissed printers right off when he came back so enlighten us. (Links)
