This is awesome for TI!

It is pretty crazy that Facebook is valued over 10 times this but if we didn't have facebook we wouldn't have likes, pokes or farmville...... If we didn't have Semiconductors we might not have Facebook. Strange world indeed! "Like" it though.

If we didn't have Semiconductors we might not have Facebook.

And if we didn't have sand we wouldn't have semiconductors, but I still ain't buying up the Gobi Desert.
