"All I can really say is that electronics is a fascinating field that I continue to find fulfilling. The field is still growing rapidly, and the opportunities that are ahead are at least as great as they were when I graduated from college. My advice is to get involved and get started."

-- Jack S. Kilby (1923-2005), Nobel Laureate in Physics 2000
