The first they’ve heard of it

Rumours about various manufacturers have been flying around lately, the newest rumour being Foxconns’ imminent cessation of making branded motherboards. DigiTimes has spotted several things that peaked their curiosity, and seem to think that while Foxconn may continue to make motherboards or at least components, but they would not be sold under the Foxconn brand.
