Thanks again, At least one company I know is forging ahead with at least the key programs as before the crisis. Its not to the point of cutting engineering talent, as they are still being sought after. The capacity expansion has been cut, and with shrinks as Micron as taught us, you can make do with your current FAB's and add key pieces of equipement that will get you to the next geometry. So, everyone now has key programs in place to shrink their designs further. I am not saying R&D is not affected, just not to the extinct that the article suggests. Maybe too, I am thinking of only one or two companies and the others may indeed be at the this point. Good trading.
