PB, <If the bin split % isn't high enough, it isn't released, or it could possibly announced with a qualifier, i.e., "xxx available within x weeks", but even then, the bin split % has to meet a certain criteria.> This is a nice engineering indeed. On paper. However, business requirements are always above the engineereing criteria, and if the market conditions change, there might be some "stretches" in your otherwise perfect qualifiers and plans. Have you ever considered such a turn at Intel? And I guess you know what happen to honest Fab managers when they find out that these "qualifiers" become heavily out of the reach for employed equipment. In other words, expect your boss to resign soon :) (just kidding of course).
