BWAC, or.....it could mean that it is overtly cheaper to
manufacture older technology chips and the demand model for certain legacy products doesn't require newer technology.
That gives credibility to the idea that older technology
fabs, with fully paid for and depreciated equipment, are
making good profit margins because their overhead and
operating costs are lowered, and demand for their products
is UP! BB
