Apple reportedly offered TSMC $1 billion for them to be their dedicated chip supplier

The relationship between Apple and Samsung can't be very good right now, but it seems in spite of Samsung's loss to Apple in their legal battle, Apple still needs Samsung for a variety of components for their products, and Samsung probably needs Apple as a customer as well. There have been reports in the past that suggested that Apple was looking for alternative manufacturers to reduce their dependency on Samsung, and adding to the rumors is the latest one in which Apple has reportedly (via Bloomberg) offered TSMC over $1 billion for dedicated production of their chips.
