"made in China"

Also customers who have the majority of their products assembled by FoxConn, the same company Apple contracts with to assemble their products:

Just Saying.

That's just the 52 largest companies who have their consumer electronic products assembled by FoxConn. There are over 500 at last count.

However, Apple's products are engineered in California, and the Apple MacPro is made in Austin, Texas, and the Apple iMac is made in Elk Grove, California. Many of the parts of those products you claim are "made in China" originate in the United States, such as the Gorilla Glass IV on the screens, almost ALL of the software, some of the more important ICs, etc.

Apple was the last major computer company to move major production to China. And the only one to move any of it back.
