- stephenr 8y agoApple had history making computers - even portable ones - and consumer electronics. iPhone is just a different form factor in that sense. This is more like your local sandwich bar deciding to also farm their own pigs for the ham.
- mattnewton 8y agoIf selling sandwhiches brought in 40 million in revenue last year, and there is essentially a hog farmer monopoly (nvidia), and you are worried about the monopoly running out of meat, or selling it first to your competitors, or just hiking prices indefinitely, yeah it makes sense to hire some hands and get yourself a barn.
