Saturn - <It speaks well of 0.18 micron capacity ramp. It should make it possible to ship Willamette in volume in the second half of the year, if the Willamette infrastructure issues are put to bed. It also implies that Timna is imminent.>

Exactly.

<I am eagerly awaiting the disclosures from the IDF regarding
the performance and delivery schedules on Timna, Willamette and Merced. Then we will be able to put the 0.18 micron capacity in perspective.>

This would surely put perspective on this news that semiconeng brings. As I said, I'm not worried about a glut, and 1M die from wafer sort to assembly from a high output P858 fab should certainly be treated as good news, IMO.
