Xy,
There sure are some Morons on the Yahoo threads.
There a 300 possible good die on an 8 inch wafer.
At 79mm2 (not 81) for a K6-2 thats 79 x 300 = 23,700mm2 of potentially good die real estate on a wafer vs the 30,000 this guy uses.
Not only that but where does he get the 5k wafer starts per week figure? Rabbit out of the hat? If he thinks yields are 21% I suggest he short immediately.

Jim
