VLSIs.
10 years ago it would be absolut true. But in a few last years Sony
makes one mistake after the other loosing money and having to cut
jobs. They loose battles with LG and Samsung on many consumer
electronics fields like displays or portable audio. It can happen
just like you wrote, but in these years it is not that sure.
