Apple plans new 50-acre campus
Apple is planning to build a new 50-acre campus near its present headquarters in Cupertino, California, according to Reuters report. "What's happened at Apple is that our business has basically tripled in the last five or six years," Jobs said on Tuesday evening at a Cupertino city council meeting. "[Apple] has gone from $6 billion in sales to $20 billion in sales, basically." The new campus, which will take 3-4 years to design and build, will accommodate between 3,000 to 3,500 employees. The company plans on razing the buildings now on the property which is located about one mile away. Jobs addressed the Cupertino City Council members on Tuesday, April 18: "We're pretty thrilled," Jobs told the city council members. "Since we're your largest taxpayer, I thought you might be happy for us."

You obviously don't know the relationship apple has had with the city of cupertino. Remember this is the same area that thinks it is the greatest place to live in the world and every other place is inferior. Pretty much what they think of people.
Wow, that would be smug, if it weren't for the fact that most every town and city think the same freakin' thing!
