Paul: Re: "AMD does not have to buy Implanters they can just buy SOI wafers." Sure - but their supplier HAS TO BUY THE IMPLANTERS and add that cost into the wafers !! You keep thinking that AMD can get something for nothing ! Paul, The article stated that the cost/wafer is expected to decline to $100/wafer at the 130nm generation. That would add circa 50 cents to the production cost of a processor. Well... What does 20% performance improvement do for the ASP? Do the math before you post Paul... Regards, Hans
