robert, re "It appears to me that Intel is in uncharted waters relative to anyone else in accomplishing high 300mmfab yields. Of course the old 225% more chips per wafer might just be getting thrown out the window."

Assuming you are referring to the same process on 300mm instead of 200mm, the theoretical increase would be 125%. So your "225%" is probably a typo.

However, a 90nm process should also yield more chips than a 130nm process. What do you think the increase would be for this process change .. without a simultaneous change in wafer size?
