Why is that not a relevant strategy for competing with Apple? Nvidia and arguably AMD could both out-engineer Apple if you're just talking about chips here.

Aren't they talking about the "ease" of competing with a lower-end, non-vertically-integrated device?

Same tactic won't work against Apple because they make the key chips, make the hardware, the software, etc. They can have you look at your MacBook, and the headset brings up your laptop's workspace ready to go.

You cannot sell a $3,500 toy with "Handoff". It really is that simple.
