Expansion plans announced today (thanks to alepho):

Now all that remains is an explanation of just why AMD feels the need for such aggressive expansion:

Unreconciled as yet: Doug's blind faith acceptance of INTC's claims of Conroe runaway performance across the performance gradient...and...AMD's need for capacity enabling it to supply 50% of the world's needs.

Hmmm! I wonder what the reconciling entries might be!

Oh no, say it isn't so! Yet another hit on INTC's margins:

"Sources at Taiwan notebook makers suspect that by pricing the mainstream Merom chips in a similar range to the T2400 and T2500 Intel may cause higher inventories of Yonah-based dual-core models in the worldwide notebook market over the next three months, after which a significant price war to clear inventory may take place. From January 2006, when the dual-core Napa platform was launched, the average selling price (ASP) of Napa models has fallen from US$1,500 to US$700, the sources mentioned."

Just not a pretty sight the goings on at INTC these days...Q2 has just got to be looking REAL UGLY at INTC!
