In any case, computers are only a small part of Si-based circuitry in use, and contemplated. Are you sure about that Mitch? I believe computers are the #1 application segment for silicon IC's by far. I can't quickly find current data but this was the case in 1997: Computer 50.6% Communications 17.7% Consumer 16.2% Industrial 9.2% Automotive 5.3% Gov't/Military 1.0% I'm sure Computer is a lower percentage now but it surely must still be the primary driver of the silicon IC business. converge.com Merry Christmas All!
