Submission + - Former Intel Engineer: Skylake QA drove Apple away (pcgamer.com) 1

UnknowingFool writes: A former Intel engineer has put forth information that the QA process around Skylake was so terrible that it may have finally driven Apple to use their own processors in upcoming Macs. Not to say that Apple would not have eventually made this move, but François Piednoël says Skylake was abnormally bad with Apple finding the largest amount of bugs inside the architecture rivaling Intel itself. That led Apple to reconsider staying on the architecture and hastening their plans to migrate to their own chips.

    Just my complaint about using acronyms in a submission, there are sometimes more than one possible meaning of an acronym.
