"Intel has more than .8 million square feet of fab capacity. That's roughly 8 football fields!"

Actually, and I don't wish to demean your prodigious effort, but a football field is (100yds) or 300' x 110 feet or 33k square feet or ~3/4 of an acre. .8MM square feet is approximately 18.97 acres. (Assuming 42k square feet in an acre.)

...Or approximately 24.242 football feilds. :)

This may help to explain AMD's claim that they have caputured 90% of the PC market.

But I'm just guessing here. :)
