Please explain to us what this line means then...

Configuring an entire computer system on a single chip is an industry first

Because to anyone with a decent grasp of English it sounds like they are claiming exactly that.

Yeah, I see that. My point was that they've been referring to a "system on a chip" since the A4 in 2010. I don't know what makes the S1 different.

I think it was just some over eager idiot who wrote the press release. Since Jobs died, crap like this slips out far more often than it should.

SoC goes back all the way to the early 2000s, hell you could claim even earlier but it's a bit of stretch.
