Where in Maine is the NSM Plant? The ice storm has done a lot of damage there.

Re: reducing the chip size from 150 square millimeters to just 88 square millimeters. </I. Does that mean that the 150mm die is still one and really that is the one that is late, hence no PR233 in Dec/Nov and PR233 just starting to appear? Looks like they did 150mm M2 on 0.35um and GXm on 0.25um. patrick tang

Fuchi, Thanks for the link, now if NSM can crank the clock speed up to 300MHZ they could kick INTC's butt, and gain some serious market share. It would be even better if they can integrate the "system on a chip" strategy with the 6x86MX and incorportate video,audio, soft modem,ethernet,MPEG2,and DVD and sell the chip for $300, if they could implement this Intel and AMD wouldn't stand a chance. I may be looking to buy into NSM by summertime but am still waiting for the right timing, this is good news though. It will likely take 6 months to get the South Portland fab into a yielding production mode once the process is transferred, just in time for the XMas season this year. NSM will be a buy in April-May, IMHO. Regards, BB
