Sharp Warns That It Might Collapse
angry tapir writes "Japan's Sharp, a major supplier of LCD displays to Apple and other manufacturers, has warned that it may not survive if it can't turn around its business. The Osaka-based manufacturer said there is "material doubt" about its ability to continue operating in its earnings report filed Thursday. Sharp added, however, that it still believes it can cut costs and secure enough credit to survive. Its IGZO technology for mobile displays is likely to be a key element of its business strategy."
Disagree: "literally" means no metaphors/non-literality at all, and that text was riddled with non-literal wording and meaning, including that use of "drove" in the absence of cars or cattle or drive shafts. Let's keep "literally" and "infinitely" and even "exponentially" for when we mean and need them, not as a poorly-thought-out cheap replacement for "very" and its ilk.
