Apple has posted a new page on their site saying that the company has created 514,000 jobs in the U.S.A.

Throughout our history, Apple has created entirely new products - and entirely new industries - by focusing on innovation. As a result, we've created or supported more than 500,000 jobs for U.S. workers: from the engineer who helped invent the iPad to the delivery person who brings it to your door.

U.S. Jobs Supported By Apple
A study by Analysis Group found that Apple has directly or indirectly created 304,000 U.S. jobs.* These jobs - spread across all 50 states - include thousands of jobs in numerous industries, from the people who create components for our products to the people who build the planes and trucks that carry them to our customers. For example, this figure also includes workers in Texas who manufacture processors for iOS products, Corning employees in Kentucky and New York who create the majority of the glass for iPhone, and FedEx and UPS employees. Together with the 210,000 iOS jobs generated by the app economy, these 304,000 jobs make a total of 514,000 U.S. jobs created or supported by Apple.
