All right. Good morning, everybody. Welcome to the second day of the Deutsche Bank Technology Conference. I'm Ross Seymore, head of the semiconductor research here in the U.S. Today, we're fortunate to kick it off with the Chairman, President and CEO of Texas Instruments, Mr. Rich Templeton. As always, if you have questions, raise your hand. We'll get a mic to you towards the end because there are people on the webcast.
And with that, Rich, thank you for kicking it off this morning.
