Mr Dan, Re: "They're already on "step 3."" Sorry, early in "Step 2" at best Mr Dan ... Low yielding SRAM test chips at AMD are NOT a good sign. AMD has quite a ways to go to get the yield up. eetimes.com "SAN JOSE, Calif. -- Foundry startup GlobalFoundries Inc. has updated its process roadmap and rolled out a customer partnership program. It appears that the company's roadmap has slipped for its separate 32-nm and 45-/40-nm offerings. Comparing the new roadmap to the last update, the foundry company has slightly pushed out the introduction of its 32-nm, silicon-on-insulator (SOI) technology based on high-k and metal gates. That process, devised especially for Advanced Micro Devices Inc.'s microprocessors, was supposed to move into 'tape out' or 'risk production' in the first quarter of 2010. Now, the technology is targeted for 'risk production' in the third quarter of 2010." Mahmoud
