I've had the iPhone Mini since launch and it's basically the perfect phone. I use it without a case and it hasn't gotten any scratches. Camera is excellent, video is solid, processor/RAM is never fully utilized, battery

this makes sense. Users who don't know what they are doing should be dissuaded. Those that do know what they are doing will not be dissuaded. Given the potential security consequences the warning approach is entirely appropriate.

What is your point? Intel failed to execute on their own Fabs? That intel needs to use TSMC's fabs to get parity? That Intel can't get access to TSMC's best fabs? The end result is the same. Intel has chips that are 3 years b
