Which is why it is so odd that the differences between them are as large as they are. If they all buy the same ingredients, why is TSMC's secret sauce so much better?
- tormeh 6y agoI hear ASML works like an extremely high-tech consultancy. The tech developed for contract a is not available for contract b, so you can't just call ASML and ask for the same machine they sold to TSMC. That's what I've heard, anyway.
