This one even less meaningful than the last, but hey. It turns out that the recently cleared Polaroid site in Waltham, soon to be a shopping center, may contain… an Apple Store. It’s not a done deal yet (see the local report and its caveats here) but it certainly would be a story if Polaroid’s spiritual heir rented some of the old turf.

Though I can’t help pointing out that we’ll have traded good manufacturing jobs with pensions for retail positions for which the product is made in China. Better than losing the jobs altogether; far from ideal.
