This article should be moved to the more common term "chip shortage" edit
The term "chip shortage" is far more commonly used, especially in Silicon Valley (where I grew up). A comparison on Google Ngram Viewer shows that "chip shortage" is far more commonly used than "chip famine." From skimming through a few examples on Google Books, it looks like "chip famine" was used primarily in a small number of books published in the United Kingdom in the 1980s. --Coolcaesar (talk) 18:07, 17 March 2021 (UTC)
Concur, never heard of that definition anywhere in any article, book, etc. in over twenty years of reading about semi and tech. Should be removed. Regards 17387349L8764 (talk) 22:29, 20 November 2022 (UTC)
