Avatar, Re: Reports have surfaced that IBM is gutting a building in New York and turning it into a 300-mm, sub-100-nm fab. Once the fab is equipped, IBM will reportedly turn the plant over to AMD, sources said. In turn, AMD will make next-generation processors in the fab

So in return for the couple billion dollars it costs IBM to build the fab, AMD will manufacture processors there? No, seriously, what does IBM get out of it?
