9to5Mac Obtains Confidential Renderings of Apples Campus 2 Interior

As Apple continues to expand, it has drawn up plans and purchased 175 acres of land for $300 million for its Campus 2 in Cupertino, Calif. Recently, 9to5Mac obtained confidential images of its office plans, giving a look at what Apple insiders can expect to experience in the coming years.

The images from 9to5Mac’s “reliable source” show the inside of the circular building, which has been described as “spaceship-like.”

According to the Cupertino website, construction of Campus 2 includes demolition of the 2.65 million square feet of existing offices, which were previously owned by Hewlett and Packard, and construction of 2.8 million square feet of office space, a 1,000-seat auditorium, a fitness center, research facilities and more.

Breaking ground on the building, for which Steve Jobs oversaw the designs, will begin later this year. Digital Trends points out Jobs saying in his biography by Walter Isaacson that this campus was to “[express] the values of the company for generations.”

Apple, you purchased propery in CA? Did you not look to the near future? CA is due to roll out into the ocean, either before the Rapture, or after the 7-year Tribulation! Guess it will be when Jesus Christ comes to Earth and places His foot on the Dome of the Rock causing earthquakes which follows the fault line into CA?

Now, had you purchased land east of CA, you might have been able to survive during the 1,000-year reign of Peace!

  I do believe the Rapture is coming, and the 7 years tribulation, but I think you probably have 50-100 years before it comes. There are so many other things that have to happen first. We have a wide open window to ruin all the great achievements that came before us…

It stinks that they don’t build phones in the United States. It also is ridiculous that Jobs was a liberal, yet he built his phones overseas in lieu of paying exorbitant business taxes and labor force taxes that he voted for.

Liberals always want taxes for YOU but not for THEM!
Let’s get rid of the burdens on business and build phones HERE NOW!!

If there was ever a “sell” signal for a stock, this is it.

  They can afford it with all these people that arfe hooke in the I Phones. We know two young college girls at church that are hooked on the phones wike folks are hooked on dope. They have all 5 that are out now. When # 6 comes out they will max their credit cards out again. Here in S. Oklahoma if you want good phone service you use US Celluler. I asked one of the girls how she like her e-mail and service on the AT&T I Phone. She replied it was great, except you have to drive around to get a good signel. I have the same problem if I use my Kindle in town.

  Nope, they”ll be exempt. In 2nd term, executive order 2.1-09 will make sure that all Barry contributors pay no corporate tax.
