Paul, Re: "Do the math - 50% reduction is 175 die/wafer and 2500/175 us PRECISLEY $14+ - his EXACT NUMBER."

Yes, $2500/175 is $14.

But Dan3 wrote "cuts the yields down to 50%" as you quoted in your earlier message which is not the same as reducing yields by 50%.

Dan3's other number for working die cost is $2000/250 is $8. I do not see that Dan3 ever assumed 350 working die per wafer in his figures ($2,000/350 is $5.74).
