Jerry estimated 2M and actual was 2.67M. Yields on .25 are much better than they were on .35. Petz is right. AMDs yields are not as good as Intels but according to Yousef that has a lot to do with the way the chip is designed allowing for a small die size. I will let you in on a little tidbit. The K6 costs a lot less to make that a Pentium II if Pentium II yields are 70%.
