Apple HQ2
Where do you think it’ll be and why? ... my guess: east coast somewhere, Apple would want to soak up some grads from East coast tech schools: MIT, Georgia Tech, UIChampaign (guess that’s Midwest)..
It's already in Shanghai
3rd rock from the sun

It’s just a glorified customer service center not a full equal headquarters...
meh. There really is no HQ2 for any company. Wherever the CEO shows up to work everyday is the (real-)HQ. All the rest are HQ-not.
I think it will be in neveda
Detroit
Not a HQ2. More like an Austin sized campus from what the papers are predicting. And I’ll be super annoyed if no cool tech teams go out there and it’s mainly tech support and AppleCare or marketing. And if I were to randomly guess, I’d say San Diego. Lots of other wireless chip makers down there to poach from. Amazon investing there as well.
Hm, how big is Austin anyway?
Austin is slightly bigger than IL.
I think it will be in Chicago.
Apple likes proximity . They won’t go further than Palo Alto . Most likely Sunnyvale or Santa Clara
Is that closer than Shenzhen?
They said outside of Silicon Valley. But I’m thinking still within CA.

Says nothing about Seattle being an option.
Apple not Amazon. Correction: maybe it won’t be “HQ2,” but another large Apple site.
