INTEL TO LET TSMC MANUFACTURE SOME OF THEIR CPU'S!!!

[Mr. Friendly]

Intel to Outsource 'Atom & Xeon Based SoCs' to TSMC

TSMC to produce next-generation Atom & Xeon SoCs for Intel

www.tomshardware.com

Is this a "blinded by the light" situation?

I recall in a few topics covering intel internal politics that certain individuals have been pushing for this for a while due to intel's fab issues.

Doesn't affect the vast majority of us...no desktop or laptop chips.
