Yousef, re:<Intel has been much better at fully utilizing their capacity>

With five or six fabs, Intel should have capacity of 25,000 to 30,000 wafers per week (AMD's Fab 25, when fully utilized = 5K wafer/week capacity). So if Intel is getting 160 good die per wafer like Paul Engel says they are, they should be producing and selling 4 million to 4.8 million CPU's per week, or 200 to 240 million per year! Somethings fishy, wouldn't you say?
