In the 1970s microchips helped jump-start the economy. In the 1980s personal computers unleashed a wave of consumer and business spending. And in the 1990s the Internet gained steam just when the economy was at its bleakest, creating new companies, jobs, and investment opportunities.

It has been a tough season for Intel, the world's largest chip maker. Intel's stock price slipped 42% in 2008 and its fourth-quarter numbers were poor, with net income off 90% from a year earlier. In such a difficult economic environment, cuts to non-essential spending would seem natural, like the company's substantial corporate social responsibility (CSR) programs around the world.
Intel did what it said it would do: post a miserable fourth quarter. But with the chip industry in a major slump, that kind of candor doesn't extend to the first part of this year.

Time passes slowly in Novosibirsk.
