Jim - Re: "What are maximum yields? 45%? "

At 45% yields, AMD would be awash in money and they would be having Rod Stewart serenade their staff on a daily basis in their cafeterias.

If their 0.25 micron process was at that yield level, Stewart would be serenading in the fabs and Sanders would have 4 limousines - one for each direction!

Uh Oh, Intel better watch out. betterchips.com "Fab 25 is fully functional and pushing maximum yields"

Well, if it weren't for the unquestionable veracity of this information source I would have just dismissed your warning out of hand. I don't see how Intel is going to survive in light of this glass-shattering development.
