Paul, Stuff they run at fab 25. I believe the embedded versions of 486 up to k6 all run at Fab 25. Also the latest networking chips including ADSL etc are all Fab 25. Having said all that I would presume that 80%-90% of fab 25 is CPU related. In addition they are also going to ramp flash there in Q2/2H 2000 as dresden ramps up. In terms of yields your 35% seems low. I had read a while ago of them yielding 130-150 DPW. So maybe the real number is 50%-60%. regards, Kash regards,
