Paul, I got taken in by sloppy definition of yield. See below.

ALL, re:<Kumar of Piper Jaffray said 100 % yield on K6-266, 75% yield n K6-300>

What he means that for the chips that work, they all work at 266 MHz and 75% of them work at 300 MHz. By saying "the yield problems are fixed," he means that somewhere around 50% of the possible chips are functional. This is a higher yield percentage than there ever was on the 0.35 process and there's more than twice as many K6's per wafer as there were.
