TT, re:<3.2-3.7m units is not conservative... k6-2 has bigger die size>

Let me tell you, this is total baloney. Over half the 2Q production was with a 162mm die size. Here's the percentages:
56% 162mm
23% 68mm
21% 80mm
Average 123mm

For Q2, 75% 80mm and 25% 68mm will give an average die size of 77mm

2.67m x (123/77) = 4.3m

3.2m to 3.7 million is VERY conservative.
