@chucker@norden.social @masek@infosec.exchange @hzulla@infosec.exchange That's not Vertical integration. They bought in the ARM design company. They don't make chips, cases, PCBs etc. They used to make almost all their PC HW, but that wasn't vertical integration either. Now they make very little. Apple server long gone. Mac Pro gone.
