Brian, Re: "If you thought I was referring to the output of one wafer..." You knew to be more "accurate" in your HYPE in the future, Brian ... Is this why you were "let go" at IBM ?? Make It So, Yousef

Brian, Vantis signed a 5 years foundry agreement with UMC group to fabricate FPGA VF1 with .25u process in UMC plants. It is interesting that some street talks said that AMD might place K6 orders with UMC to increase its capacities. Wonder why AMD needs so much of chip capability if the yield on .25u process has been fixed. Another question is why await so long to take this outsource action. IMHO, AMD should have UMC manufactured K6 last year. However, it is still not too late to adopt the K6 outsourcing policy now.
