burn2learn, Re: "Past 300mm who will set the standard for the new generation wafers, or take the same line of thought into litho tools. As the foundries are increasingly used and so will their influence of the future of processing. Intel and IBM will become old hat and having to meet standards vs. drive." I don't get it. What is fundamentally better with the foundry model? Right now, UMC and TSMC are behind Intel in process technology by more than a year. Intel is driving the future, because they are ahead, and so far, they have the spending to ensure their lead. How and why do you see the situation reversing itself? The foundries don't all-of-a-sudden gain a bigger voice "just because". Besides, Intel and everybody else in the industry makes use of the ITRS. intel.com So I don't see how your version of the "future" involves Intel falling behind because they can't meet industry standards. Maybe you can enlighten me...? wbmw
