Qualcomm Marketing Executive Calls Apple's 64-Bit A7 Chip a 'Marketing Gimmick'

You know that putting spaces in a word keeps the spell checker from letting you know that you've misspelled demonstrably, no?

And that's relevant to this discussion how? (Keeping up with the Pensylvania-Dutch syntax just to keep the crowd amused...)

Unrelated to the subject but I find it quite interesting!! We say the same in Albania "the fox and the sour grapes" when someone makes an odd comment about something he/she can not reach but is jealous about it! Most be universal thing!

I'm from Croatia, we use it often when people are dismissive because of jealousy.

But the theme comes from Esop's fables, so it is universal.

This guy criticized a customer of Qualcomm (Apple uses Qualcomm baseband chips). He touched the third rail of the fabless semiconductor industry, and he got zapped.
