AMD's Fab 30 in Dresden, Germany Ships 10 Millionth AMD Athlon Processor Die......Shipping the 10 millionth microprocessor die from AMD's Dresden facility after only 13 months of production shipments marks another impressive milestone in Fab 30's history

Is this supposed to be a major feat? At least 1 Intel Fab ships that many CuMines in well under 10 weeks.

Wow, I am impressed !!

AMD has averaged about 800 K units a month for the only product shipped from a $2 Billion fab. That is an accomplishment.

But I don't think that any other semiconductor company would allow this failure to become public, let alone brag about it.
