Yousef, Re: "The latest P4 chips available next week will be made using 200mm wafers, but in a month the P4 2.4 GHz is expected to be made from 300mm wafers. Also, the chips are made using 0.13 micron technology. The 300mm wafers combined with the processing technology at 0.13 microns results in lower costs and higher performance." Looks like Intel is using the "process thingy" to reduce costs, and thus increase "margins". wbmw

Yousef, looks like a bit of Quantitime in that article: On Friday, Intel (INTC: news, chart, profile) shares rose 27 cents to $30.68. I guess with the markets closed tomorrow, some people think it's Friday today. Anyway, ticking off those milestones, one at a time (or two with 300 mm?). If Intel keeps nailing schedules and that other company doesn't, it'll pay off extremely well down the road. It also helps keep another "Dell rumor" at bay. Dell, with their JIT model, doesn't need a "mainly always late" supplier. Tony
