Ya I get it but they are in the chip biz.

I’m always fascinated when an incumbent gets beat by a company that views that core business as an ancillary means to their own core business.

Probably I think another example is Netflix creating its own content. It’s a streaming company... but now they produce award winning content.

Early on, books sales was Amazon's core business.
