John, Re: "With Intel embracing strained silicon, other chip companies are sure to follow--and are likely to come knocking on Amberwave's door. A few already have. United Microelectronics (nyse: UMC - news - people ), Taiwan's No. 2 contract chip foundry, has already said it is working with Amberwave to offer strained silicon to its customers. And with UMC using the technology, it's a fair bet that Intel's chief rival in the PC microprocessor business, Advanced Micro Devices (nyse: AMD - news - people ), will have access to it as well. AMD and UMC are jointly building a new chip factory, or "fab," in Singapore that will start pumping out chips in 2005." Gotta get to Strained Silicon.... The next race is on. Better add it to the rest of the list. wbmw
