And, of course, there are AMD's repeated comments that "yields are fine, demand is great" or whatever ;-). (and not just "fine", better than Austin - and that was a year ago - now, they're even better).

What about AMD's statement that their cost structure was 10-20% below Intel's? That is very hard to understand when their die size is a little over half the P4 size and should yield well over twice the number of processors from a wafer. Their cost should offer a 50-60% advantage, if they have normal yields. What would bring such a small die up to such a high cost? Another clue for you to ponder...
