Jack -

A more curious question is why AMD didn't bring ATI products into their own fabs more quickly. Perhaps they didn't have a viable non-SOI process to run it on but it's been obvious for quite some time they would have one at 32nm so what was the holdup? Engineering resources at AMD? Doesn't GF provide the porting? That should have been the plan from the start I would think. The more product run at GF the closer they will be to break even or even profitability. That would make AMD's stake more valuable for them when they sell off that remaining asset. Remember, selling off everything of value is what AMD does to keep the bills at bay.
