>$100 laptop? No worries. I might also point out that there are many CPU chips that have been made by "FABless" companies. I do not believe that MIPS ever owned a FAB, nor has Sun Microsystems (SPARC).
I worked for Digital when we had our own FAB plants for making the Alphas. We also did FAB work for lots of companies that had designs, but no FABs. When it comes to FABs, there may be very strange bedfellows. I agree, this is a non-issue. md -- Jon "maddog" Hall Executive Director Linux International(R) email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 80 Amherst St. Voice: +1.603.672.4557 Amherst, N.H. 03031-3032 U.S.A.
