We are exploring moving beyond silicon-based chips to significantly boost the performance of PCs. Silicon chips will continue to improve, but we need to look ahead decades into the future.
Joerg Appenzeller
In the U.S. and Silicon Valley, we can continue to compete in analog for sure. We will continue to compete as long as immigrants can continue to come to this country. But if people chose not to be here, you could have these learning centers here move.
Jack Gifford
It is still not as fast as today's silicon chips, but we can make it orders of magnitude better. We have a very clear picture of how to move on. Developing the first car is much harder than making a car that can go faster.
Joerg Appenzeller
The T1 addresses this issue as a massively threaded processor that can handle more tasks on a single piece of silicon. Customers can now do a lot more without adding hardware.
Fadi Azhari
This is a case of Silicon Valley restructuring and repositioning once again.
Russell Hancock
They were to Battle Creek in the early 1900s what Compaq and IBM computers have been to California's Silicon Valley. They set the standard for healthy living 100 years ago, and they continue to set the standard today.
Jim Hettinger
However, we believe a bright spot for (Silicon Image) was its exposure to the consumer Japanese market, which was a pocket of strength, and has provided some cushion to the overall softened demand.
Charlie Glavin
Today?s (venture capital) money chases older, more-established companies with real cash flows, rather than pie in the sky projections. Silicon Valley has evolved.

Paul Whitworth
Silicon in its bulk format we all know is not an efficient emitter but when you get down to the quantum-confined sizes, you get very different effects. For the smaller sized particles you can get blue emission and for the larger particles you can get red emission. By having a film of these devices, you can electrically stimulate them.
Conrad Burke
We want to bring Silicon Valley to the Midwest.
Anthony Marlowe
There are some irresponsible claims out there. A group of silicon vendors wanted to halt after draft one.

Rajeev Madhavan
Having an easy to use wireless network is going to make Silicon Valley more competitive when it comes to attracting conventions and visitors. The network will once again demonstrate that there is no better place in the world to do business than Silicon Valley.
Dan Fenton
I think the Titanic disaster has parallels today. The closest think I can think of is the silicon chip... We're all kind of bowing to this computer god, thinking it's going to fix everything and we're geniuses for inventing this. And, you know, I just think we should pay attention to disasters of the past.
Billy Zane
There are now more IT orientated brains in Bangalore than in Silicon Valley. That's where things are moving. That's where innovation will develop.
Paul Hermelin
This district could be the Silicon Valley of the new energy-technology industry.
Jerry Mcnerney
It is ironic that the Internet is a global phenomenon -- yet if you're not in Silicon Valley, it's really hard to get a sense of the pace and the connections between those companies. So many of the ideas get transferred in hallway conversations, meetings over lunch and the casual interactions of the companies that are proximate.
Joe Kraus
The key here for any innovation is that there has to be a level of consistency -- in terms of academics, in terms of incentives for venture capital, and in terms of new category development. Regardless of the administration, when you see areas of the country like Silicon Valley going through roller-coaster cycles, that's what's harmful.
Robin Abrams
Like Open-Silicon, which has most of its customers within a five-mile radius of its headquarters, many technology start-ups are servicing American and European markets.
Promod Haque
It had been debated for some time whether 2005 or 2006 would be the bottom year in the downside of the silicon cycle; in fact, it appears that both 2005 and 2006 will represent an extended two-year period of moderate growth before the market returns to double-digit growth in 2007.
Gary Grandbois
The JP was not sanctioned to endorse a specification developed in private by a handful of silicon companies, ... The difference is the fact that [EWC] agreed to create silicon, and they've said they will create silicon and push that silicon interoperability specification regardless of what happens in 802.11n.
Greg Raleigh
The same is true for every other Silicon Valley company.
Stephen Dewitt
We believe the loss of the primary silicon supplier for their Marlboro facility will negatively impact margins through fiscal year 2006.
Kurt Hallead
The silicon dependence of crystalline will remain a challenge to the industry and, as such, Shell has decided to focus on next generation technologies.
Tim O'leary
There has been an enormous profusion of companies. Innovation has developed so rapidly in Silicon Valley beginning with the semiconductor base that we now see maybe 50 different categories of industries here representing over 5,000 different companies.
Regis Mckenna
We're hearing much more about elbows being thrown, especially if you're talking to people in Silicon Valley. There's a lot of competition out there.
Mark Heesen
All the other thin-film approaches have inherent instabilities, but CIS, like silicon, has no inherent degradation mechanism that has been identified.
Billy Stanbery

Matthew Wagner
Being near Silicon Valley has its advantages, and one of them is we're at ground zero for the companies doing wireless broadband. The advantage of going in as a team is that we become a much more attractive client because of the number of people we will be offering.
Brian Moura
We have a growing customer base. Last quarter we added nine customers and we hadn't approached them. They heard about us. We are well known in Silicon Valley for services flexibility. When customers say 'jump,' we say 'how high?' That's how we win business.
Latchman Venkatesh
The silicon cycle has been in a downtrend since late last year.
Toshizo Tanaka
Ultra-wideband is in its infancy in terms of speed and distance, ... The initial approval from the FCC might be, for example, for 100M bit/sec with a range of 150 feet. But there's no reason why you can't increase speed and distance. It's a matter of power and finer and finer granularity of the silicon chips.
Frank Dzubeck
IA-32 EL provides much better performance and flexibility for 32-bit applications on Itanium. With Montecito, we took back the silicon area that was being used up by the x86 hardware support.
