Altera is definitely doing fine...just look at their share price versus other relevant companies and you'll see that they are relatively stable...and they are launching a new building soon. Just drive pass and see for yourself.
notably there are also other companies in Penang which are "quite" well cushioned against the downturn such as Marvell and STEC.

Heard that many departments in Dell are closed. Cut cost. You mean dept totally close down?Or headcount freeze? Havent heard of that so far...should be latest news.
