alt Hacker Newsthey deliberately do not want to enter the server market. it is literally an entirely different thing than what they're doing right now. they can't do any of their vertical integration there, there's no moat for them.
like Tim Cook said (quoting Steve I believe) - it's about knowing how to say no 1000 times so that you can say yes to the right thing once, and then put your all into that

"like Tim Cook said (quoting Steve I believe)" haha. Let's hope the new CEO quotes Tim Cook on this.

There is a rumor that Apple wants to enter the server market again with new chips for AI.
It's also a market they used to be in, over 20 years ago.

This is something they've tried, and later decided based on that experience that they do not want to be in the server business.
"Xserve is the result of listening to our customers," said Steve Jobs, Apple’s CEO.
