Brian,

<<Chen nonetheless said the chip cycle would become less predictable as more and more silicon finds its way into consumer gadgets rather than personal computers, which benefit from relatively stable corporate orders.>>

Less "predictable?" Did he mean "volatile?"

<<``This will make things rather tiring for foundries but the cycle will bottom out faster,''>>

Is a tired foundry good or bad? I'm sure the meaning was lost somewhat in translation.
