    Well... there goes the neighborhood.
    Austin's horrible traffic is about to get way worse. Yeesh.

      Yeah, why couldn't have they selected somewhere on the "silicon slopes" along I-15?

      The weird thing is that Tim Cook mentioned some time back they weren't going to make a major expansion in Austin and was looking somewhere outside of Cali and Texas. I am guessing the availability of Whataburger in Austin sealed the deal.

        Not enough woke liberals in Utah, I guess.

          The campus is planned for Williamson County—not Austin. It’s roughly the equivalent of pretending Levi’s Stadium is in San Francisco.

            But ain't nobody know where Williamson County is.
            Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

              Wait... Apple is building in Round Rock? Well, at least Austin has the F1 track. Or is that actually in Elroy?

                    Why have a dumb credit card when you can have an Apple Card?

                    No, Apple News+, Apple TV+, and Apple Arcade.

                    Apple News+ is cool. 300+ magazine stand publications for $10/mo for the family. This includes the Wall Street Journal which is more than that alone.

                        I tried to sign up for the free trial of Apple news. I couldn’t sign up because my work computer is a PC. Guess I need to use my phone or iMac at home? How is this thing not web based?

                            Yes, over 300 of them plus newspapers! All less than what it costs just for the WSJ (which is included).

                                It’s been fun to watch Tim Cook follow Jeff Bezos. I guess Tim saw how much money amazon web services was making and wanted to emulate that.
