Paul,

re: fab 25 capacity.

Last quarter they produced 1M K7's and 5M+ k6-2's.

And they didn't run at 100% capacity.

Spitfires should be in 120mm2 range and so 7M+ is feasible from fab 25 alone.

In reality I would not expect more than 3-4M out of fab 25.

With dresden kicking in 1-2M/qtr high end chips by Q4 this year.

My point is that even without dresden AMD has tremendous capacity.

With dresden they clearly have over-capacity.

They need to do more to create demand IMHO.

regards,

Kash
