<<NEC announces 300mm fab in CA>>

Brian,

Assuming current biz conditions do not markedly deteriorate, this fab will start producing wafers in 2002. Equipment will be ordered in 2000, at the earliest. I still keep hearing that this fab will be making 8" wafers initially, and transitioning to 300mm in time, but this announcement seem to contradict my info.
