It took them a year for a microcode fix and it still has a performance loss of 50% in some cases? Ew
So they created a massive vulnerability by misimplementing speculative execution which promised a, what, 10% speed gain tops and now that it was discovered you have to patch it and lose 50%? Genius.
And they get to keep the money from the purchase.
