It seems like Apple bit the hand that fed them a little too hard tongue.gif

samsung should move their fab process quicker, if they can offer smaller processes, then they can actually fight back(either have the best chips around, or make apple pay a lot for them)

regardless, im glad to see karma is still around

LOL! What is really going to hurt apple is that means that their end product is going to have either less margin, or have a higher price. Both of which can really cut into apple's profit big time.

They better be careful or else Apple will just buy their own fabs.

Yeah, because that's a great idea. Fabs are very R&D/capital intensive, so I doubt Apple wants to go down that route.

From? Not to mention, Apple's stock is down 25% from mid-Sept. Building a fab (Read: spending loads of capital without any short-term profit) is the last thing they want to do. Not to mention, I'd figure that even a 20% increase in fab costs wouldn't cause Apple to build their own fabs.
