Care to estimate margins on the PII-300's, 333's, 350's & 400's?
Paul - Do you agree with "As for the profit margin, as you know we can sort for CPUs of
various speeds from dies of the same wafer due to process variation
accross the wafer, so , technically speaking, the cost for 166Mhz,
200Mhz, 233Mhz, are all the same, so the profit margin of 233 Mhz
is higher than that of 166 Mhz."
