>"I think a better question to ask is whether the underlying economic factors behind continuous process tech improvements are healthy. Is there enough value-add to the final user by continuous process tech improvements?" I agree with this and I suppose I just sort of reached for Moore's Law out of habit and maybe a bit of laziness. Thanks for articulating the question more appropriately. >"Looking forward I think the economics are very healthy with a design-house/foundry service model that we have right now so I would guess that Moore's law (or some approximation) will continue for the next decade." This was what I was looking for. Cheers.
