Intel 80386 a victim of downsizing, Chartered FAB7 cranks for AMD

Intel plans to cease production of 80486 after 28 September 2007. This must be part of Paul O's restructuring plan, some jobs will be cut or relocated for sure.

In other news, Chartered FAB7 has started AMD64 production in May at 1000wspm. Shipment is scheduled for July. A 1000wspm 300mm rate translates to about 1 million dual core Athlon 64/quarter.

Wasn't Fab7 supposed to be 65nm?
