Intel CEO Letter to Employees

>>fancy_+(OP)
He will announce they're selling the foundry business within the next 12-18 months. I'm certain of it.

It'd be the final piece of Apple's vertical integration puzzle.

>>axoltl+Qo
Why would Apple want a foundry years behind anything TSMC is doing?

>>delfin+Sq
For the same reason they would want a modem business years behind anything Snapdragon is doing.

>>zuhset+082
Apple aims to design its own modems and retain ownership of the intellectual property. Apple is not in the business of manufacturing. its not the same reason

>>MangoC+oh2
Well a long time they also weren’t in the business of designing silicones but here we are. Apple wants control in every aspect.
