Apple launching processor research centre in Jerusalem

Apple recruitment specialist Elad Wertheimer has announced that the company is opening a research and development site in Jerusalem to develop future Mac processors.

“The site will take part in the flagship projects that we are leading from Israel, first and foremost the development of future processors for the Mac,” Wertheimer said.

Coincidentally, Intel also has R&D in Israel..

Some Intel engineers could be offered some really good money to jump ship....

Apple and Israel. What a perfect combination of a thread this will be

 

[epah]

I thought Jerusalem was only in the bible.

The M in M3 will stand for Mensch.

Their lead chip designer is Israeli I think, and he used to be at Intel

Intel has more than R&D in Israel. Most of the development of some generations happened in Israel rather than the US. In fact as far as I remember it was the Israel development center that created the first Intel Core processors and rescued intel from the disaster that Pentium 4 was shaping up to be. Before that I think Intel Israel was core to the creation of iHDL (which Intel used before VHDL and Verilog became mainstream).

So yes -- there is a lot of Intel talent for Apple to prey on

And the guy who spearheaded Apple's move to their own chip has now left to work for Intel..

But he came from Intel in the first place.

Why?

I wonder how long before they start firing rockets at the Apple premises

The Holy M3!

Seriously though these processors are incredible.

About $1-1.2m/year.

Wait for it, we gonna have marches in South Africa to demand we stop buying Apple products and anything with an Intel CPU…

Just glad they got rid of the Israeli tomatos and saved our country.

Why?

Your kidding? Had one to many booster shots?

The status of Jerusalem is disputed in both international law and diplomatic practice, with both the Israelis and Palestinians claiming Jerusalem as their capital city

I’m well aware of the situation both current and historically, I’m wondering why it causes you a dilemma towards buying and owning Apple products?
