>Intel is presently using 5 of its FABs to run P4, and 2 .13 FABs to run tualatin PIII/Celeron - total 7 FABs for CPUs. AMD is running 1 1/2 FABs, which means it takes Intel 4.5 times as many FABs to supply 3 times as many processors.

Am I overlooking something here? Aren't half or more of Intel's processors P4s? Isn't P4 on .18 micron something like 80% larger than Athlon? Wouldn't that explain it?
