Fabless follow-upEETimes Blog - Don ScansenDec. 09, 2010 |
In mylast Dew Point column I lamented the fabless approach to the chip business. Questioning the widely accepted outsourcing model attracted several reader comments. Anyone interested in the topic may be interested to look at those reader comments as they are insightful and a few offer some additional historical perspective. At least there was one comment that can be spun to appear to agree with my commentary: "The semiconductor industry was way more fun back in the 1980s, when dinosaurs like Jerry Sanders still roamed."
Dylan McGrath commented that the fabless model has been an unqualified success. But perhaps I was not quite getting to the heart of the matter as much as other commentators.
