Re: "have you heard about delays with Ireland fab "

Sure did.

Intel won't need it for a while because AMD keeps slipping all their new product launches.

Intel delays $2bn Irish fab upgrade theregister.co.uk

The Register's sardonic take on that story.



Intel Ireland spokesman Bill Riley told the Irish Times that the $2
billion would still be spent when construction recommences in 2002.
Pesumably this mean the company will spend less than the $7.5
billion it originally earmarked for investments in chip production this
year.

Ironically, Chipzilla chief Craig Barrett told attendees at the Intel
Developers Forum last month that "you never save your way out of
recession", referring to cutting back R&D and infrastructure
spending. Quite the reverse, he said, you spend more money, so
you're ready when the recession ends. ®
