I read that as un-ionized briefly. I am not a morning person lol
Tim should sign a component under the case of one of the Mac Pros on the line. Then some lucky person would get a signed Mac Pro!
It would have been fun to be the person who called AppleCare and got Tim Cook and Eddy Cue on the line!
"Can I speak with your supervisor?"
Weird, last time went it was a three hour deal.
Oh well, my bad D:
I like "made in the USA" initiative. Many technology firms invested thrilions of dollars in China in the last decades providing better life for the people who lives there, and thats a good thing. Imagine having country like China with poberty like Somalia, Afganistan... It would be a horrible world to live in, both for China and rest of the world. However, since China is now the biggest economy in the world, so they must find a way to make their lives without or less western money and must start to compete on quality and quantities, not only on low workforce basis. Id be happy to pay 100$ more for my iProduct knowing its was produced with cleaner and more sustainable manufacturing process providing fair wages to the workers.
LOL.. I would return it as damaged goods.
Look at Apple putting illegals to work instead of Americans.

Try 1 hour. LOL! I used to make that trip any day of the week.
How would letting a communist country that is a enemy stay in poverty effect the rest of the world? A communist country that steals it's tech or insist on a tech transfer as they have no tech inventions themselves.
are you serious?
Thank you. Sorry but China matters ZERO to me and most of the USA. They can work out their own problems. Maybe if they opened up the economy, started innovating their own stuff and stopped reproducing like insects things would be better? Right?
As for this factory in Austin..... So happy to see it. We were always told that these companies just can't find the workers here or whatever BS excuses they came up with. Of course,I'm sure the always angry shareholders HATE this idea. I mean, paying people good wages in the USA to do work that could be done by slaves in china? How could this have happened? Well, either way, good.

"Just down the road in San Antonio"
Didn't know 80 miles was "just down the road."
Is that Windows XP running on them iMac's in the factory?
I want the mac made by people who believe in math an science please... Hopefully they keep a Chinese version around so at least some of them will work properly. Somehow I think high school graduates who believe in math and science and not religion might be better suited to building computer hardware.
Believe in math and science? Not sure what you mean here. Those producing iPads and iPhones aren't Einsteins. They are severely underpaid and overworked. Religion? Huh? Did you mean to post this here in this thread? I just don't see the relevancy.
If you are trying to say china has a smarter population then you are so wrong. If they are so smart why can't they produce or innovate end thing themselves? Everything they do is because of someone else's idea or they outright copy the device and call it their own.

I don't agree with his points necessarily but factory workers are not the reason for innovation in any country:
