IBM'S TOP SECRET STRATEGY PLAN FOR THE SUPERCHIP

IBM has transfered advanced chip technology to Taiwan. Why?

Consider the following facts: IBM's market value is well over $150B. The next computer company, Dell, has a market value of about $80B. IBM has an appetite to grow very large. Only one company can fill their appetite. Intel has a market value of over $180B, and IBM wants at least 50% of Intel's market value in a seven year period and have an equivalent of over $250B or a quater of a trillion dollar. The figures I have quoted are very low.

To obtain this market value IBM cannot achieve this in the USA. This would be an overt monopoly.

So in order for IBM to capture the chip market of this magnitude, it must setup plants outside the USA, and the only country that has a great desire for power, and in which Intel and the USA has not much control is mainland China.

This strategy is accomplished by IBM transferring this type of technology, first to Taiwan, and then the Taiwan entity transfers it to China.

So IBM controls the chip market through China. How can this be?

Well since 1982, IBM has been investing in x ray lithography and spent over $2B and a fair amount of DoD money too, which was used for the development of chips for this century.

When the design features on these superchips get to the order of less than 0.15 microns or lower, this technology takes over and the superchip comes into mass production.

At present IBM controls the world technology in this area. So Nan Ya Technology, a Taiwan company is being primed. Mr Wang, the owner of Formosa Plastics, who owns Nan Ya will keep his fortune when China takes over Taiwain, and most likely these plants will be in China.

Therefore China will control the "SuperChip manufacturing" of the world, and Intel will loose at least 50% of its market value, and the USA cannot say anything.

Remember it was first reported in the Washington Times, Nov 26, 1998 that...CHINA WILL HAVE ICBM CAPABLE OF HITTING THE USA IN THE YEAR 2005.
