I have news for you.

AMD's yield problems have not been solved.

Did you ever think about IBM not starting wafers until Q3?

That's because AMD has to re-lay out the K6 to IBM's process which is a lot less agressive in design rules.

The K6 at IBM will be larger than the MegaFlop 25 K6 - it has to for it to yield properly.
