Elmer - re: "Someone needs to let the air out of this one that IBM is a top notch silicon manufacturer. I am personally involved in a project which relies on an IBM fab and quite frankly Intel would be ashamed if they were producing the same low yields we have consistently seen. IBM may have all the latest process whistles and bells but they are far from world class manufacturers. If only we could get our wafers from an Intel fab...."

Hmmmmmmm...maybe that's why IBM's Lightning 486 and PowerPC programs have been less than successful !!

Just how bad are their yields?

You can disguise the answer with a number between 0 and 100 !
