Apple Ireland, started as a manufacturing facility, in fact their first location outside of the U.S. But pretty quickly after its founding, Apple realized the tax advantages of Ireland and built up the Apple Sales headquarters there, which is primarily responsible for handling money matters of sales in European countries. Interestingly, though for a moment I suspected Apple’s headquarters may be in Ireland like Medtronic recently did, Apple is still headquartered in the United States. It’s just that their Ireland location is a significant subsidiary.

Apple iPhones made from rejected parts? Okay, now this is pretty interesting. Wow, and the biggest fraud yet related to Apple iPhones. Really tough when you’re a company like Apple.
