Dr Saeed,

Re: "You are so emphatic about the lack of Motorola's ability to be a good
partner.!! What is your basis that MOT cannot be trusted?"

Dr Saeed, It was just 6-9 months ago that Motorolo was trying to decide
within their company whether they would stay in the IC process development
"game". Motorolo HAS decided to develop processes and they are selling
and partnering with others besides AMD as well. When will they change their
corporate direction again ... Who knows. By then, AMD will have lost all
of their IC process development capability.

Re: "Why are you insisting in misspelling MOTOROLA AS MOTOROLO?!!"

I just don't think very highly of their process development ability ... They
needed IBM to learn about Copper, for example. Also if you meet an old
workstation system designer, just mention the 68040 CPU and watch his "eyes
bulge and veins pop-out". A disaster much worse than the K6 at .35um. <ggg>

Make It So,
Yousef
