    This is exactly why they want Taiwan. They can make chips, just not the greatest ones. Taiwan literally helped invent the most advanced way of growing platters around.

      I was under the impression that most chips don’t need to be high end - just something good enough for the thing to work. Unless these have very high failure rates or catch on fire they should be fine, right?

      These chips are in everything too. Electric vehicles need them, factories and businesses want them.
