Apple to open highly caffeinated office in Seattle

Apple and California go together like wine and... well, California too, I guess, but the company is apparently looking to spread its wings a little bit, though it won't shake itself free of the west coast entirely. According to The Seattle Times, the company will be opening an engineering office in Seattle and will be sourcing local software gurus to fill its seats.

The core of the Seattle team will be formed by former employees of Union Bay Networks -- a cloud computing startup so new it doesn't even have a real website yet. The Seattle group will be hammering away at various Apple software products including iCloud and iTunes, according to a LinkedIn post that has since been axed.
