Thanks for the clarification on the size of Dresden's clean room. I didn't mean to imply that it was 900K square feet, but can see how my message may have been misleading.

By way (1) do you think that given Dresden has the latest semiconductor equipment it can generate more chips than Austin despite Austin's larger clean room and (2) do you see any sound investments among the semiconductor equipment companies?

The page on AMD's web site says Dresden's capacity is "5,000 8-inch wafers per week at full build out." This data appears to have been from last summer. I wonder, and hope, that the capacity will be greater.
