It's coming. My prediction is Apple will start doing server chips not too long from now, at least for internal use. This is going to be especially important as they emphasize their services more and more over their hardware.

Apple Services aren't the same as their hardware.

Well, no shit. I was pointing out that they're placing more and more importance on being a services company rather than a hardware/product company. As that emphasis on services grows they'll probably switch to their own silicon for their cloud stuff which their services will run on.

And I was making the point they aren't even a player on the services market, regardless what their servers run on.

lol what makes you say that? I'd consider apple TV, apple music, apple maps, etc all as services. What is your definition of "services" and do the ones I listed fall into your definition.
