“Some 90 percent of solar cells are based on crystalline bulk silicon and there has been no sign of a breakthrough leading to a next-generation technology. We think we have come up with unique ways to do that.”
Conrad Burke
“There's going to be tremendous churn in the silicon, with current chipsets being dual-mode and 1.8Mbps, going to tri-band and 3.6Mbps later in the year.”
Matthew Wagner
“Fifty-acre parcels are generally not that available in Silicon Valley. You can't buy 50 acres, you have to piece it together. So if you're Apple and you're going to go through the trouble of putting it together, you might as well pick an area you want to stay in, as opposed to one further away where you might save money but it will be just as difficult to assemble.”
Matthew Anderson
“You literally can squeeze silicon, and thereby give it properties to make it faster. The thing that is making it run faster is not just that it's smaller but because you're changing its basic physical properties.”
Bernard Meyerson
“The (Silicon) Valley is about results, and that's what's exciting about this.”
Lezlee Westine
“We have to recruit and retain our staff in a very competitive job market. Silicon Valley is 45 miles southwest of Livermore. The computer companies there aggressively recruit good computational staff.”
Douglas Post
“The silicon cycle has been in a downtrend since late last year,”
