Possible Insider Information from FAB30 (Dresden) http://www.wallstreet-online.de/ws/community/board/thread.php?&uid=&iid=&tid=608215&fid=10&offset=0&reverse=1 Here's some insider information from an alleged AMD FAB30 employee: (my translation from the link above) 1. Wafer starts at 5,000/week at the moment. It takes 55 days from a wafer start until the chip is available for selling. 2. Maximum capacity 5,800 wpw not 6,000. 3. 2400+ and 2600+ are being produced for two weeks now, should be available at the beginning of September. 4. 0.13 process runs without a problem. 5. 0.13 is expected to scale up to 3200+. 6. Hammers aren't manufactured yet, so a earlier release is unlikely. 7. Hammer core is expected to be twice as big as Thorougbred (???). 8. Biggest problem right now are sales (demand). Andreas
