er a Dave,
RE:"I remember Paul stated that he received the "double secret AMD yield
email". While the contents of the email were never posted on SI, was
AMD on a .35 process or a .25 process? Another question, did the this
email state the growth in yield, or yield percentages? As I recall, AMD's
3Q production of K6/K6-x's almost doubled, but that was due to the .25
process; therefore, where were the supposed "yields" increased?"

You come on the AMD thread and ASK two of AMDs biggest naysayers about AMDs yields? I wonder what they will say? Duh.

Jim

Good observation.

AMD may define the "yield" to mean what they want it to mean - depending upon the situation.
