"Fab 36 will have to contribute a million parts before the end of March to maintain inventory and sell as many as chips as in Q4." It's going to be tight. No chips out until late February, so they have a bit over a month to do it. I suppose, under the circumstances, they could start more wafers during the ramp than they usually do. It is risky, though. OTOH, they probably were running test wafers at Fishkill for quite a while. So it wouldn't be like past ramps.
