Silicon in computer chips?

posted on Jul 20, 2020 10:18AM

Hi Bernard,

I understand that the focus is on batteries and solar. Makes complete sense to me. I am however curious as to whether HPQ would ever consider computer chips to be a viable market for HPQ's silicon metal one day. I've not seen any materials from HPQ on that market/industry. Is there a particular reason why that market is not being pursued, or would that industry not care about HPQ's silicon for some reason? Just curious.
