It shouldn't be, if Apple gets that import exemption from the Chinese memory manufacturer (ChangXin Memory Technologies) they are asking for. Apparently they're already testing the CXMT chips to put in the phones sold in China, freeing up the orders/stock they've sourced already from "safe" sources, to go into their products sold in the rest of the world.

Smart move if they can finagle it.

Hopefully they can get it through before the fuckwits in the administration understand how effectively it can threaten the big AI players that Trump seems to be sniffing around.

You absolutely BET that he will scuttle any trade deal if it interferes with his own personal agenda WRT his investments in AI.

He's that much a greedy cunt.

Or the more likely option that they get the cheaper ram from China and then double dip and use the ram scarcity excuse for higher prices
