I read that, too, a while back. Looking at the authors of the papers published
on Intel's coprocessors, it is also reasonable to assume that much (if not all)
of the work on their coprocessor was done in Israel. Don't know if they are
based in Tel Aviv, though. Some other chip manufacturers have design centers
there, too. E.g. NS and IBM, I think.
