	Computer Industry, by George Gilder: The Concise Encyclopedia of Economics: Library of Economics and Liberty
		The microchip is a computer etched on a tiny sliver of silicon the size of a fingernail, containing scores of functioning logical devices in a space comparable not to the head of a pin, but to the point of a pin.
		The United States dominated the computer industry in 1980, with 80 percent of the industry's revenues worldwide.
		In contrast to the American approach to the computer industry, European governments have launched a series of national industrial policies, led by national "champion" firms imitating a spurious vision of IBM.
