___________________
Apple might be the archetype of a rags-to-riches story. From hand-made computers to iPhones and iPods, Apple seems to have done it all.
In 2018, it became the first trillion-dollar company, and along the way, it has reached cult-like status. With each new release, people flock to the stores to be the first with the latest iPhone and be a part of the brand. But the story is much more than just technology.
There are enough Apple stories to fill books, feature films, and Youtube channels, but this is Company Forensics, and today we are going to talk about that time when Apple almost went out of business.
