here is the reason why morons got it wrong!

morons said apple dumped Samsung.
here is the proof it's the other way around!
Samsung dumped apple cus they can't make chips fast enough for their galaxyS tablets and GalaxyS phones (SIII,NOTE, etc)

Bravo to Samsung, hopefully we will see some of those new faster processors coming our way soon!
