re <<5000 8" wafers/week * 52 weeks * (25400 mm2 area per wafer) / (81 mm2 area per chip) * 0.9 (theoretical yield) * 0.6 (actual yield) =
44 Million CPU's>>

A similarly elegant mathematical model of yours predicted a profit for AMD in the 3rd qtr. The actual result was a LARGE, no, HUGE, (For AMD), loss. If your current model reflects commoditization of CPU's are we to conclude exactly the opposite will happen?
