About 250 employees at Hewlett Packard's Corvallis site received their layoff notice from Hewlett Packard this week, February 2009. In Corvallis, Hewlett Packard Managers plan to shut down one of three silicon wafer fabrication facilities at the Corvallis site. This latest announcement continues a list of similar announcements that will ultimately affect the "East Fab" site, that is slated to be completely shut down. The larger question is how long will it be before Hewlett Packard closes its doors completely in Corvallis, Oregon?
