Jim - Re: "AMD has now cranked up their K6 production and they are doubling the yield monthly now."

Do you realize HOW LOW their yields would have had to be in order to double every month?

Do a binary progression - If they WERE 10% to start, they would be 20%, 40%, 80% (160 %!!!) after only 4 months assuming they started in March, prior to the K6 launch.

To double the yields monthly without maxing out at 100% (which means they can't even increase let alone double), their yields would have had to been much less than 10% to start.
