Semiconductors are just considered commodities now, Ten. Like pork bellies. You may have the finest pork belly extractors in the world, but the world isn't impressed.

All you guys do now is reduce the feature size, which has led you to add multiple cores. What has Intel done in the last ten years that is cutting edge, high tech? Nothing. Why is it that each new, "faster" processor seems no faster than the one it replaces?

There're just in SV because they started there, when they WERE high tech. They might as well relocate to Mississippi, and save themselves those high CA costs.
