Elmer - Re: "One more thing Paul, these Via chipsets will hopefully use up foundry capacity so AMD can't farm out demand."

I don't think that is an issue currently.

With foundries running at <50% of capacity, there is plenty of capacity for both AMD and VIA.

However - as you well know - the performance capability of these foundries will not be adequate for VERY HIGH end processors.

I would imagine that AMD could use some foundries for the low end DoodleWrongs.
