Intel's foundry business never seems far from the headlines these days, not least because various ex-executives continue to publicly debate whether it might be a good idea to split it from the rest of Intel entirely in the wake of well-publicised financial woes. Speaking at a technology conference yesterday, John Pitzer, Intel's vice president of corporate planning and investor relations, revealed that, despite previous plans to the contrary, 30% of its wafers are still outsourced to TSMC.
"I think a year ago we were talking about trying to get that to zero as quickly as possible, but that is no longer the strategy," said Pitzer (via Tom's Hardware).
