Intel Inside (tm)

Announcement to the world today - Intel will be building a new fab, right here in Hillsboro. What was I babbling about yesterday - how the economy needs people with bonuses to spend, this will spur the economy.

Our prayers are answered. As Jean-Luc Picard would say in his definitive way, "make it so."

A $6-8 Billion dollar investment, 6,000 construction jobs, and 800 long-term manufacturing jobs. That would be $2,000 for every man, woman, and child living in Oregon. And for every Intelite, both blue badge and green badge, lets have shiny new laptops for each member of their family. So they can tape their favorite fortunes from Chinese restaurants until the tape gets so old it is glued to the case.

Thank you Intel.
