RE:"The mobile AMD Athlon 4 processor has a die size of 128 mm2, and integrates roughly 37.5M transistors" Then according to my calculation there are about 183 good die/wafer after edge loss. Not too bad. It appears the worries obout a 150 mm2 die size were unfounded. 128mm2 clears the way for desktop A4s w/o cutting off some transistors. Paul was really hoping for the big die size and 63% extra manufacturing cost. Looks like it was a fantasy. Jim
