Uh...I didn’t know ANY chips were still manufactured in the U.S. anymore?

Apple makes chips in the U.S.A. Most other PCs use chips made in China, yet people ignore those traitor PCs and blast Apple. At least Apple is making stuff here.

Just saying.

Apple has a massive manufacturing base in China.

Everything is made there. Along with the other big companies, as well.

Apple is just as big a part of the problem, as is any other company. They are all sold out.

Big time.

What chips are those?

Apple’s CPUs are made by Intel

No they dont. They design their chips for the iPhone but outsource production to TSMC, a Taiwanese company.

Apple pretends its products are made in America, but most are actually produced in Xian, China, which makes about 80% of the world’s chips.

The HNIC of Apple is gay.

Given that it seems that we have convinced the Chinese to lean toward capitalism, I’ll trust a capitalist more than I would trust a gay. Besides, Apple has just cut-off the GOP.

I remember reading an article that the U.S. military purchased semiconductor components from China to install in our military equipment...and found they had back doors built within them. These back doors could potentially have been used to shutdown missiles and other U.S. military equipment during a time of war.

HOW DAMN STUPID CAN OUR LEADERS BE?
