Intel: Moore’s Law to stay strong

February 23, 2004 – Stop fretting about Moore’s Law — it’ll keep working for the next 15-20 years, according to Intel CEO Craig Barrett, quoted by Dow Jones..

Speaking at the Global Information Summit in Tokyo, Barrett said that a continuation of Moore’s Law into the next couple of decades will enable more electronic functionalities and capabilities, as well as a convergence of digital information technologies in areas including wireless networks and broadband infrastructures.
