That's my guess. Or else they'll announce that they're starting a space program!
My understanding is that ably $66 billion is offshore. I really expected them to sit on the cash until the US government gave them some sort of tax amnesty
A space program is about the only worthwhile thing apple could do with that money. The world doesn't need any more novel distractions, or rich investors.
Nitpick - the world needs all the rich investors it can get, just not any more rich speculators.
(where investor = someone looking to finance innovation and long-term value/wealth creation; and speculator = someone looking to get rich quick on market volatility, pump & dump, etc.)
