The press gets it wrong: Apple in Vancouver
- herodotus 9y agoI know the acquisition itself is not new to hn, but the article is interesting because it shows a complete lack of knowledge or research on the part of the journalist. Apple has had a presence in Vancouver since at least March, 2005, when they acquired Schemasoft. If the journalist had done a google search using the tools tab to set a date range, he would have found several hits to that news. Instead, his spin is "Apple Inc. has staked its first presence in Vancouver ...." which is just wrong. Further down in the article he says "The arrival of Apple in Vancouver with the establishment of a small engineering hub, follows the northward expansion of the biggest internet players in the United States...." Just not accurate. One can only sigh. PS: I did email the journalist in question.
