Hmmm. Intel down $2 and AMD holding with a small gain. Perhaps we have moved out from under Intel's umbra and into its penumbra. Pravin.

...somehow we get info at the end of the quarters about wafers and processor shipments... buzzz wrong answer. You get total processor units shipped... and not separated out by specific product. I do not have a clue about his calculations but I have strange feeling that you might be guessing here as well... buzz wrong answer again. I'm intimately familiar with yield calculations in the semiconductor industry. He's making a common assumption which is reasonably valid for non-redundant SRAM product but falls apart when you're dealing with logic or products with built-in redundancy. Your final point is so ludicrous as to not justify response.
