RE: Gallery - Apple outlines new 12,000 capacity campus

Most corporate titans build new buildings that are towering thrusting edifices. This one is low, round and surrounded by bushes. Hmmm.

Freud said that sometimes a cigar is just a cigar, but this is very interesting.

And Trump said always

check out the building codes, especially in earthquakeland California, to see what building heights are permitted. Lots of bushes? Green, man, green!

we come in peace

Me thinks that Steve is building the Apple mothership. Once the last human has an iPhone or iPad in their hands, it will rise into orbit and control the minds of the human race. Don't worry, you'll feel no pain. There's an app for world domination.

I see why they went with the circular shape -- a five-sided figure would have just given too much away.
