The money is mostly in Braeburn Capital, I believe. https://qz.com/393093/the-mysterious-fund-in-the-desert-that... [edit: better source]

I wonder: one big motive of corporate decisions, is choosing businesses that keep or increase their margins, not decrease it(even if it's a good business, with a good ROI) - because of the stock market.

- Does this dilemma exist for decisions made by Braeburn Capital and other Enterprize VC's ?

- And if not, isn't it possible to create a financial structure that will enable businesses run/own more integrated lower-margin businesses ?

From the linked article: "Braeburn is a variety of apple that is simultaneously sweet and tart."

I was always confused that it's not an apple of Scottish origin - "Brae" is scots for "hill", and "burn" is scots for "little river"

It was first cultivated at an orchard in NZ called Braeburn which is almost certainly named after a Scottish person or place. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braeburn

That's a big FU by Apple to its US customers taxes pay for many things roads, schools, police, fire.
