RE <<<Remember also that, for most of Q4's output, the die size was 16X mm, with maybe only 40-50 good Athlons out of 150 per wafer.>>>

Petz, thanks...no one did answer the question. To take what you said further, next year at best the yield off a Dresden wafer at best probably will be 120 chips. So we can expect production for at least the first half to be at a rate of 120 X 5000 wafers X 4 wks X 6 mos to be about 14 mil chips.

Does that figure seem pretty reasonable? That's assuming if Dresden is used for nothing else but Athlons.
