the chop chop was discussed on the cc

I got the impression this wasn't planned but was done out of necessity
they can allocate the wafer for 64, 128 or 256 but there is some changing (time) that needs to be done to convert bt them.
you have the details right double chop a 256 card--Eli stated it was done b/c they didn't exactly estimate their needs right of 8MB -"this won't happen again"
and it apparently was more economical to do it that way than to reallocate ( right word?) certain wafers to 8MB
I don't know enough to answer the rest of the tecnicals of your question and as far as I recalll---those details weren't discussed in the CC

Now, can you give me your overall impression in investing in Tower ???
