I wonder if they will construct a European data centre?

Who cares who's the best? As long as both (and other companies) make a conscious effort to be energy efficient, we all win. (and as long as it is a real effort and not a PR ploy).

Ah, you are the voice of reason on this thread. Posts like yours do not belong on MR. 😀

Just don't mention politics or your whole "voice of reason" theory may be blown.

There Apple goes again. Trying to get a monopoly on green energy. I suppose next they will get a patent on it and take all the other companies to court to prevent them copying and from going green. Apple=Evil... 😡

I must have missed the part about APPLE "trying to get a monopoly on green energy". Why so much hatred? Is there anything they can do to please you?

Absolutely! ANY company making a real effort to be ECO-conscious should be lauded.

I wondered if anyone would respond. Check the title of my post carefully. 😉

The title of your post could be construed both ways, but I'm glad you responded and cleared it up for the record.
Lord knows there seem to be a few APPLE haters on this site, and we're glad to hear you're not one of them.
Critical=OK, spewing blind hatred=Not cool.

Sometimes I think some of those haters secretly admire companies like APPLE, but don't want to admit it. 🙂
