Fire in the belly

This book provides the history of RF Micro Devices, a high-technology company based in Greensboro, North Carolina. Jerry Neals revealing, entertaining, often funny account of how RF Micro Devices came about is much more than a story of one companys beginnings. Fire in the Belly is a wild ride through the technology boom of the 1990s, from the layoffs that inspired the companys founding to just nine years later when RF Micro Devices had a market value of $16 billion, twice that of its technology partner, defense contractor TRW.
