Joe, RE:"Remember that the production moved in-house, to .25u process and yields are supposedly very good, making MII one of the cheepest CPUs to make. If they dedicate 5,000 wafers/month to MII, and the yield is only in the 50% range, they are making 750,000 chips/month. When fully equipped, South Portland can process 30,000 wafers/month." ---------- Unfortunately, I don't know the status of NSM in-house production. All I can say is that it would be a miracle for NSM to revive the MII. On the other hand, it appears they may be doing just that. Or maybe the MXi production is going well. Trouble is that there is little information about this finding it's way to my desk. If anyone has any good information I'd love to hear it. At least with TA I have a picture of whats's going on. Jim
