What’s amazing to me is the cult of secrecy that has successfully permeated Apple. When I worked there, it seemed like every other person had a hotline to the Mercury News on their office phone—if you wanted to know what was going on at the company, just pick up the paper. But now secret projects are apparently staying secret, even within Apple.
