Silicon Valley: A documentary

In 1957, decades before Steve Jobs dreamed up Apple or Mark Zuckerberg created Facebook, a group of eight brilliant young men defected from the Shockley Semiconductor Company in order to start their own transistor business. Their leader was 29-year-old Robert Noyce, a physicist with a brilliant mind and the affability of a born salesman who would co-invent the microchip — an essential component of nearly all modern electronics today, including computers, motor vehicles, cell phones and household appliances.

AFTER the movie - we can have a brief discussion session. NOTE: You must supply your own soda pop and popcorn! :-)

Trivia may also follow, so bring your Jeopardy hats too
