Jim - Re: " couple of simple questions for you. Is AMD using an 8 inch wafer? If so, how many "possible good die" at 81mm2 are there in one wafer? At 68mm2? Can you approximate the cost of a wafer for me? Let's say AMD had a 57% yield. What would the approximate cost of a K6-2 be?
Also, what do you estimate the yield is for a Pentium II?"

You can do the math. You're not mathematically challenged, are you?

Why bother us, then?

I'm sure you've already done it and already have reached the conclusions you wanted to reach.
