How would you reconcile building $200M of Conroe inventory with the Otellini statement of 1M units in first 10 weeks? 1M units of production is probably less than $50M from a cost standpoint. One of those "facts" is not right.

I wonder what it translates to? It is also a bit higher than old chips invenory....

kepler, the $200M was Intel's estimate of the value of its internal CMW inventory buildup. But I think a lot of this is wafers in various stages of production.

The $900M increase in inventory, to a large extent due to Intel CPUs and chipsets, was of parts in OEMs hands -- and hardly any of this is CMW.
