Apple Renews Contract With Samsung Over A-Series Processors
tlhIngan writes "In an interesting move since Apple decided to partner with TSMC a few weeks ago, the Korea Economic Daily is reporting that Apple has re-signed a contract with Samsung to produce the A-series chips Apple uses to power its iPads, iPhones and iPods. TSMC is still to produce chips for Apple, though Samsung is poised to take over from 2015."
The glass side is the butter side since the iPad always lands glass-side down.
Then where would Samsung turn to for their product designs?
Obvious exits are NORTH, SOUTH, and DENNIS.
I believe you can protect your iPad's screen by buttering the back.

To the same place Apple did. ;)
Apple: Rounded corners, square design! You loose sucka! Pay!
Samsung: *m-ok* here, have $450M.
Apple: Muahahaha!! *twirling mustache*
(1 year later in Apple board room....)
Engineer: It's a new design. More cores, cache and video on die.
Exec: Great! Send those plans to TI!
Engineer: Uh... it's not something they can do
Exec: But we are investing in America! Get TI on the phone!
TI: The design is outside the capabilities of our manufacturing limits.
Exec: *m-ok* get Samsung on the phone...
Samsung: Muahahahaha! *twirling mustache*

I think they're going to pull a "Parks and Recs" on them and they'll open up the box of first chips and every one will have "go fuck yourself" etched into it and basically be solid ceramics.
