An important point here is it took a year from "topping off" to "clean room ready", and then "silicon start" so clearly there are some tasks between the two:-)
I think many here are very optimistic about how quickly this thing will go. I saw the same thing with posts regarding the UMC and AMD joint factory that is now, ummm, a UMC factory.

I agree, way overly optimistic. I knew this as well as you did, from the start, but I was trying to use the public data, to get those people here to realize the over optimism by themselves. This is due, to what I've found, that historically, most of the time when I try to just tell people things around here, it is..... rarely received well, by some of the people here. In the past, my interest in this thread was far less then my desire to put up with the crap. Those have already been informed that they are ignored. So far, the rest, (not all), appear to be amazingly restrained this time. If not, I can always just go back to my own thread again. We'll see :-)
