From:  http://news.cnet.com



On Wednesday, President Obama 
is due to visit an 
Intel plant in Arizona. 
Here's why.







In Chandler, Intel will make its next generation of 14-nanometer (nm) processors that will be its most highly-integrated and power-efficient to date. Those chips--many of them a so-called SoC or system-on-a-chip--will power future ultrabooks, tablets, and smartphones.

And an often overlooked aspect of Intel's manufacturing might is its strategic relationship with Boise, Idaho-based Micron Technology. Those two companies formed Intel Micron Flash Technologies (IMFT) in 2006 and operate two U.S. plants, one in Utah and another in Virginia.
