"If you look today on a microprocessor, a Pentium 4 has about 42 million transistors. That means, on a 300 millimeter wafer, we have about 20 billion transistors, and they're all supposed to work," Marcyk said.

I think Intel just told us they'll have ~475 whole Northwood die on a 12" wafer...

If they get 300 good die and the wafer costs $3000 that makes a die cost of $10. AMD is in deeeeep dodo.
