Re: <<Wishful thinking, with the XRay reference, and the $700M price tag, it's likely just an R&D facility rather than a strong signal that 300mm is about to fire up.>> You read more into my post than what I wrote. By "starting up", I did not intend to imply production fabs now. People have to do the pioneering work to work out the technical problems first, and the fact that this is, in fact, happening is a positive, IMO. It's a very important and necessary prerequisite for volume production at 300mm.
