Ted Re <<I thought Fab 25 was converting to cu as well but I can't tell you where I got that info although doesn't it make sense that it would be converted to copper ultimately....I mean, why would AMD maintain product lines that are inconsistent with each other?>>

Fab 25 is not design for Copper, the contamination issue would be big. It will also take a huge investment to have it converted. Much more than it cost to convert from 0.25 to 0.18. I guess I would not be shocked if it was converted at 0.13, but I still doubt it.

Re <<Does the fact that it is at 0.18 um mean that spitfires could be produced there?>>

I am fairly certain that spitfire wafers have already been started at fab 25.
