Many of those companies were not disclosed, but Apple had confirmed a few of them in the past, including Prss for iPad publishing, Swell, and <a href="www.imore.com/apple-acquires-micro-led-display-company-luxvue-technologies">LuxVue[/url].</p> <!--break--> <p>As Apple intends to grow and bring new innovations to the market, Cook had mentioned earlier that he continues to look for additional acquisitions, which may be a good use of the cash hoard that Apple had stockpiled over the years.</p> <p>What do you think about Apple's recent acquisitions? Are you happy with the way Apple is spending its money through acquisitions?</p> </div></div></div><div id="comment-wrapper-nid-27813"></div><img width='1' height='1' src='http://tipb.com.feedsportal.com/c/33998/f/616881/s/3fa69112/sc/36/mf.gif' border='0'/><br clear='all'/>
