ref: AMD's recent yield !!! WOW astounding.

Denni: Have noticed this part about AMD's recent yield ? And this is why Intel stock went down the last couple of days,amazing ain't it? Now I know !!!

But AMD may not be able to take full advantage of IBM's manufacturing prowess if it cannot solve its own K6 production problems first, analysts say. That's because AMD and Intel are now manufacturing chips that use different designs -- and AMD must act quickly to keep computer manufacturers from committing to the Intel architecture.

In recent months, AMD has acknowledged that the number of usable chips it has been able to get from each wafer, has been disappointing, particularly with the 0.25 micron process. In January, Kumar estimated that AMD's yield was as little as 1 percent.
