Would it be fair to say that the reason Apple has their entire supply chain in China is because those "supply clusters" were already there because of the Japanese consumer tech companies that built them up in the 80's? (I have no idea when or how exactly, but the "80's" seems to be around the time of the "Japanese Electronic Invasion") In other words, for a "new" company like Apple, starting out with all their new iDevices, it simply made sense for them to go where the supply was? It's kind of like Apple "piggybacked" and exploited all the gains made by the Sonys, Sharps & Casios of the world, and beat them at their own game. I think if we move beyond the analogies of cars and other consumerables, and focus on what Apple is really doing, which is essentially Consumer Tech, then it simply makes sense for them to be where the guy that makes those fancy LCD screens is at?
