Apple calls FBI iPhone request "unprecedented" in court filing
Another case of the government deciding whether the government is right or wrong, when clearly they have every intention of agreeing with themselves, that the government is right, yet again.
My take on San Bernardino: Apple will win this case
The government's brief is weak. Apple's is strong.
The world-wide implications of this go beyond the scope of the FBI, they are Global in scale, moving beyond borders into a new age of cooperate or bear the consequences of non-cooperation and global insecurity.
In other words, Apple et al have to do what governments never seem to be able to accomplish, being smart and safe.

Apple vs. the FBI: Why the stakes have never been higher
Slowly but surely, Apple has been working on this store for over two years with still a good ways to go.
It was started about the time they started Apple Camus 2 demolition and construction.
I am puzzled by the ladder like frames projecting out of either side of the front of the building.
It looks like they may be on the back of the building also
Look at how Apple's new flagship is coming along
Six kilometers of curved glass: More than 3,000 giant curved glass panes will be used at Apple campus 2.

And by mac, the article mostly talks about the OS and how it interfaced with the hardware Steve Jobs wanted
I think Jef would have liked the iPad and iPhone, which probably fulfilled his concept
Original macintosh founder, Jef Raskin, died 11 years ago today
As his college thesis he wrote a paper arguing that computers should be completely graphical, rather than text-based — and he took this idea to Apple, where he was allowed to start researching it as a side project from the then-popular Apple II.
Raskin also believed computers should be made affordable to the masses, and set a target price for the Mac of $500 or less. Steve Jobs eventually took over the Mac project and booted Jef Raskin out — with the idea of reverse-engineering a computer around a low price being one of the first things to go. But, years later, it seems that a low-cost, ultra-portable computer is exactly what Apple achieved with its biggest ever hit: the iPhone.
Jef Raskin died of pancreatic cancer at the age of 61 — the same disease which eventually killed Steve Jobs. His name is nowhere near as well-recognized as Jobs', but he played a key part in the lives of many people reading this site.
Thank you, Jef!
