Profits - Re: "because they have fixed their yield issues on the 233, just like I told you 2 months ago!"

From AMD's web site, it would appear that AMD jacked up the supply voltage to 3.3 volts in order to get more parts to run at 233 MHz.

This seems to be the only visible evidence of how they "increased" their yields.
