RE:<Intel doesn't just make processors> Yes, and they have much more than 5 fabs also used for their other product lines like flash, SRAM for P2's, chipsets, etc. Why doesn't good old Paul just tell us which Fabs make CPU's and what their wafer capacities at full load are?

BTW, if Intel needs entire Fabs just to make their SRAM's, this vastly increases their costs for Pentium II. They have to amortize $2B fab cost for making the SRAM's as well as fab for making the P2 die.
