Yousef, there's no hype here. Perhaps the economics of chip making are much easier for you to understand I don't have a technicial background. But I do understand the bacics of manufacturing cost and the driving economics of business. You seem to be very sensitive to references of AMD dice size and the resulting economic impact it can have from a cost point of view. So lets ask the question do you wish Intel had the K-6 design to work with instead of AMD.

Yousef - Re: "You might as well ask Brian for the number of K6's on 600mm wafers!!??"

About 13,481 K6's on 600 mm Wafers at 0.13 micron geometries.

Theoretically speaking.
