Much worse than that - they were loaned the only working prototype of a small two-man team, along with the GPU it was designed to work with. They “lost” the GPU, tested the prototype on a GPU it was never meant to work with, publicly shit on the product REALLY hard when it didn’t work, were asked for the prototype back as, again, only working copy, gave the owners the run around for a long time, then finally admitted that they’d not just sold it but auctioned it off. Very likely to a competitor of the owners.
additionally they sold an expensive prototype from a small company without their permission

…Good Lord.
Thank you for the succinct description, I’ve been learning about this for two days and still didn’t catch all those details lol
