The semiconductor industry has always had to ask itself tough questions, and the questions don't much change. Here are the ten worst.
When will demand match supply?
How soon before my chip sells for $5?
Can we afford a next-generation fab?
How much will a re-spin cost?
Can we believe our customers’ forecasts?
What will the price of our product be next quarter?
Is the market going up, or down?
Can process be scaled beyond the next two generations?
Will the VCs see things our way?
Can we beat Korea on cost?
