>>OK, what i meant by INtel. I thought intel should already be using one of those 300mm equipement in producing the new .18u chips. So i meant production of intel's chips not productions of the amat's equipment.<< That's what I thought you meant. No, Intel does not have an operating 300mm fab. (Neither does anyone else, although Infineon claims they have "200mm equivalent yield" out of the Semiconductor300 pilot line. I.e. they get as many good chips from a 300mm wafer as they would expect to get from a 200mm.) Katherine
