INTEL MOORE

Intel Corp. co-founder Gordon Moore holds up a silicon wafer at Intel headquarters in Santa Clara, Calif., Wednesday, March 9, 2005. This is the 40th anniversary of "Moore's Law". Moore saw that the number of components on an integrated circuit had doubled every year and figured that rate would continue for a decade as transistors were made smaller. He saw that the per-component costs would fall as manufacturing improved. (AP Photo/Paul Sakuma)
