Albert, Re: <the yields may be of an issue but the only sources for the news is the inquirer.> How about The Register? -- Worth a full read, IMO. theregister.co.uk . . . Some industry watchers have taken Nvidia's move as a sign that the chip designer may no longer believe CVD to be the best way to achieve high yields and is thus backing the alternative - in other words, that TSMC may not be able to deliver 0.15 and 0.13 micron copper chips with low-k dielectrics commercially, for the moment at least. . . Unlike Intel and, to an extent, AMD, both of whom are said to be having some difficulty with their own 0.13 micron processes, TSMC can't afford to bank-roll low yields just to show that it's at the cutting edge of chip fabrication technology. . . . tgptndr
