And those same guys who slowly iterated on shipping hardware for Apple for years are at Qualcomm now.

Are you saying it’s a requirement that these guys ship a crappy chip first? Why? They already know how to make good ones.

Can you tell me what more they need other than their talent and years of experience to make a good chip? Because if it’s just “I demand they make a bad chip now because they’ve changed logos on their corporate polos” I don’t think this conversation has anywhere to go.
