Ten, Please tell me where AMD's four-year-old copper fab is located. I want to send my resume there. I'm not certain that the fab guys will be interested in a verification guy. It might be worth a shot however;^) Scumbria

Re: Please tell me where AMD's four-year-old copper fab is located. I want to send my resume there Gee, Tenchusatsu, first a lot of wailing that it took 4 years for AMD to bring Dresden on line (mostly from Elmer and Paul, not you), now skepticism that they have a FAB that they started working on 4 years ago. It's not a 4 year old FAB, it's a leading edge FAB that took 4 years to build. It's brand new, bristling with new technologies like copper interconnect and automated pod wafer handling, and is a class of FAB that Intel first broke ground on a few months ago. Intel claims it can copy in one year what AMD took 4 years to invent. That may very well be true, but still leaves Intel 1 year behind. :-) Dan PS - I don't think you need to send your resume out just yet, Intel will stay in business for years on sheer momentum - it just won't make nearly as much money as it used to. Or course, some downsizing does seem inevitable.... PPS - I know you were kidding, I'm kidding too. :-)
