Apple joins fight against unemployment in America

It seems like Tim Cook isn't only worried about the bottom line, but also concerned about recently released unemployment figures in the US.  I don't know if it can be attributed to that, or to his patriotism, but in this week Apple announced that a new line of iMacs will be manufactured in the US. This brings a new sense of hope to working class families concerned about the impact of the economic crisis in their lives.  This is probably the biggest difference between him and Jobs who, when asked by president Obama if Apple will ever move their production lines to the US promptly replied:  "Those jobs will never come back".
