	Intel's been doing a log of advanced design work in Israel at
	least back to the days of their involvement with the 8087. Motorola,
	IBM and others do a lot of high-end hardware *and* software work
	there. They also source some of their x86 chips there. I recall a
	certain concern about 80386 supplies during the Gulf War in the
	event the plant were hit by a Scud. Of course, the residents had
	other concerns.
