There’s a reason Intel exited in the first place. Had they been successful, it would’ve been a business worth tens of billions of dollars. They exited and Apple wanted to try because the money to buy the business for Apple is chump change.
They could even acquire TSMC if push came to shove. Their large cash holdings gives Apple so much strategic leverage.
It’s totally pathetic that even after buying an entire other modem company they couldn’t even do what Huawei was able to do under sanctions by the entire western world. Huawai’s 5G modem, built on an inferior 7nm process, has been tested to outperform Qualcomm’s. Why are apple engineers so incompetent?
Wow, they hired a ton of people and acquired Intel’s modem business in the hopes of having their own modem. That’s an expensive experiment

Yeah no the Taiwanese government would never allow it.
You realize that TSMC is way bigger than Apple, right? Apple’s entire current cash reserves would be enough to buy 1% of the company.
At current market caps TSMC is just over 1/6th the size of Apple
Non issue though because that would never make it past antitrust
By market cap, Apple is significantly larger than TSMC
Uhhhh no, Apple would not be able to acquire TSMC

More like a sabotage attempt by Intel
