some of the same countries that initially took our low paying production jobs are now coming back to skim the cream. It looks like Gordon Moore agrees with you unclewest: One concern I have is the rate at which the U.S. is training engineers. We are squandering a good portion of our lead in the world by not training enough of our people so that they can be major participants inindustry. There are really good jobs that are going begging, and many of them are getting exported. Intel has technical operations in China, Russia, Indiaand so forth, and we have them there frankly to a significant extent because that's where there are trained people. I guess I'm still sufficiently U.S.oriented that I cringe to see the quality of jobs we're exporting overseas. technologyreview.com The article touches on Moore’s Law, although it tends to focus more on his foundation, the environment, and even SETI (yup – he thinks there might be intelligent life out there and is putting up the money (along with Bill Hewlett, Dave Packard, and Paul Allen) to find out). Interesting read, though considerably off topic for the main thread. cGGG
