Apple Data Center Maiden NC

$ 1 Billion Apple Data Center - Shown here in the earlier stages of construction. Where you see the cars parked is where Apple intends to Double by building another 575,000 which should total 1.15 Million Square feet of Data Centers. Apple just cleared another 75 Acre site across the street which they paid $1.6 Million for. Word is the purpose is for a small solar farm and what is rumored to be an I-Cloud University for training clients on I-cloud's offerings. This information was gathered by speaking with local resources and has not be confirmed by Apple. But when Steve Jobs mentioned Maiden, NC three times during his stockholder's meeting it was not because of just one data center. This is just the beginning of what Apple has in store for Maiden, NC.

The latest news on Apple they have purchase more adjoining land and the new solar farm is rumored to be merely 5 acres dedicated to solar and the rest is rumored to be a training center integral to their I-cloud strategy. The location may eventually be much more than anyone ever imagined.

They would need a million times more panels than you could even get on the roof to power that joint. That building is sucking down more juice than Lindsay Lohan at an open Bar.... Combine that with what Duke Energy is paying for solar right now in this region...peanuts...It is almost not even worth doing solar

When this development is completed it will be massive not only in size but also in Scope - This thing is so massive and expensive - Word is some of the contractors had to live on site...Apple will soon be netting $50 Billion per year from here...

@mrstevesigmon No tech company can save a mining/factory town. Plus, I'm sorry but they aren't meant too. There isn't a rule that says they have to help revitalize that town to it's former glory days. Free market economy man. Like you said though, something larger and less techy. Lets hope for the best for that town.

Apple has practically abandoned OS X as a server, which is a shame I think there is some promise in it for specific applications but I think for them to be successful with it they would have to at least allow the specific things they do with it to run on linux or freebsd or allow some variant of OSX on commodity hardware.

@PunkBuzter do some research before you post a dumbass comment, nothing of which you are saying is true

@PunkBuzter Even if Apple products are expensive, it's WORTH IT and come on, it's powerful. The iPod, iPhone, iPad, iMac, MacBook Pros, etc. They're all great products and not boring. You can do a lot with this products.

PS:

NOT ALL APPS HAVE A PRICE! A LOT OF THEM ARE FREE! And take note, FREE APPS EARN MORE MONEY THAN PAID APPS! So a lot of developers still want to upload their apps as FREE and NOT PAID.
