The tariff exemptions are for those few parts included in the new MacPro that still come from China.

Define few. I applaud the manufacturing here but Apple HAS A LONG WAY TO GO. Bring it all home. Make iphones here. Do it. Take down the suicide nets.

Sigh. How many times do YOU have to be told that FoxConn has a far lower suicide rate than the general population of China itself, or the suicide rate of US IVY LEAGUE COLLEGES among young people in the same age demographics. . . By about a factor of TEN? In addition, central_va, you’ve been told multiple times—what is it now, about 200 times now?— that that spate of 18 suicides had not one thing to do with Apple’s assembly lines but instead occurred at a assembly plants over 150 miles away from any plants working on Apple products at plants variously making Sony Playstations, HP computers, Microsoft Xboxes, and Nokia cellular phones. You’ve been TOLD this hundreds of times on multiple threads, with linked proof, and yet you continue to LIE and LIE and LIE, posting the LIE time and time again, just to make Apple, who had NOTHING to do with what happened at another company, look bad. Since you do it knowingly, and deliberately, Shame on you.
