Firefighters have put out a blaze that burned for more than three hours this morning at Apple Research and Development Headquarters.

Lets just hope this doesn't put a damper on the development of the iPhone nano or MacBook Touch.


 
 

From the story:
"The Santa Clara County Fire Department says the three-alarm fire scorched the roof and the second level at one of the six buildings on the company's northern California campus in Cupertino. It was extinguished early Wednesday morning and no one was injured.

"The first reports of smoke came at about 10 p.m. Tuesday night, and the fire was contained by 12:30 a.m. Wednesday. Some stubborn flames under an air conditioning unit burned for about an hour more."

Was Bill Gates seen running from the building just moments before the fire was started?

Bill Gates can afford to hire someone to do it for him.
