Elmer-

Does this story make sense? I heard that Intel was thinking of making some chipsets in Tiawan. But if they want to use 0.13 on copper, wouldn't only a CPU generate the required return? If Intel really considering out sourcing CPU production? Is this some way to further muscle out AMD chipsets and other competitive parts? or is Intel hedging their bets on their own transition to 0.13 and copper?

Our understanding is that Morris Chang, its CEO, has been in recent head-to-head talks with the CEO of Intel, Craig Barrett.

Those wide ranging discussions cover a variety of semiconductor processes, including making chipsets, employing its 12-inch wafer plant, using its .13 micron technology and its copper wire interconnects, plans which are well advanced.
