Taipei, May 2 (Bloomberg) -- United Microelectronics Corp., the second-largest chipmaker on a contract basis, said it will make processors for Advanced Micro Devices Inc., which has more orders than it is able to meet with its own chip factories, the CTech Web site reported, citing UMC President Peter Chang

Yah right. AMD has so many orders they have to cut their prices by nearly 50%. If anything this is almost certainly to offload the K6-2s. You don't just take a design like Athlon which is now running on the harry edge and ship it off to an ASIC foundry. Too much work involved porting to a new process.
