Petz - Re: "And only an idiot would run 5,000 wafers (over half a million $) through a machine to qualify it -- even 1,500 would be a stretch. Therefore, the 5,000 wafers includes a significant amount of production wafers." That's nonsense - and YOU KNOW IT ! Besides - look at the obvious - here we are in JULY and AMD is only NOW qualifying a new CMP polisher for their 0.18 micron process ? DEDUCTION - AMD is WAY BEHIND SCHEDULE ! Paul
