Although K6 wafers are fabricated in Austin, TX, they are flip-chip bonded by IBM somewhere and packaged in the Far East. Far East then just ships the products to where-ever. Does any one know where K6 are painted?

Dell having a plant in Austin does not necessarily have any advantage over freight cost.

And also, doesn't AMD's Santa Clara office also produces K6 in 0.25um as well?

Keep dreaming,
