APPLE LOOKING TO REDUCE WAGES, AGES, FOR WORKERS BUILDING IPHONES Cupertino, CA – There’s an old adage in business that the only thing better than money is more money. For Apple that saying has become mantra in recent years as, over the last decade, the company has gone from a languishing has-been to one of the biggest companies on the planet, making a whole lot of people wealthy in the process. MARK ZUCKERBERG STILL A LITTLE AFRAID OF GIRLS EVEN WITH BILLIONS OF DOLLARS Menlo Park, CA – Most people by now know the basic story of how Facebook got started in a college dorm room after founder Mark Zuckerberg was dumped by his girlfriend. That nascent version of the site, which was really just a way to be nasty to girls, would very quickly spawn what has become a multi-billion dollar company that has changed the tech world and, some would argue, could end up changing the real world forever.

That was Microsoft’s modus operandi and it gave them huge success, at least in the early days.
