Re: My preference is if Intel goes for the lower-cost route. Mine too all things considered. But what about the power grid and necessities such as water in Mexico? Could INTC be guaranteed 100% uptime availaibility of basic resources? How many fabs (of anyone) are currently in Mexico?

Amy, Re: "Intel is putting too many eggs in one basket in one country located in a volatile area" You've got that right! Building American Fabs in Israel during their freaking civil war is about as dumb as dumb gets. With the millions of Arabs and Palestinians on the outside looking in, and hating us for supporting israel, it's a wonder Intel's first fab hasn't already been targeted. As an Intel options trader, volatility is good, but building fabs in the middle east takes that philosophy to a whole new and scary level. Gordon
