Jim - Re:"Maybe you can fill us in on the exact details between AMD and the German government concerning FAB 30?" Stop acting so dense. The calculation comes from GAAP, not the German government. The Dresden fab has a cost of $1.5 to $2 Billion and it will get depreciated over 3 years. If you use $100 million per quarter (>0.60 per share, per Q) then you have $1.2 Billion in depreciation in 3 years. So $0.60 is a very conservative, very low estimate for Dresden depeciation. The number is likely even more !!
