Forrest, thanks for the great interview! I’m wondering if you can clarify this comment you made:
“And just to be clear, we are planning for doubling year-on-year over time.”
Does this mean you are planning to double substrate capacity every year for several years?
Thanks,
Brian
Forrest, you missed a few Cyrix founding contributors, so I added a second slide set recognizing contribution in my current x86 market report just down from the supply wave captures.

]]>My apologies to all. The word integrated slipped off the keyboard. Clarified.
]]>Mike is absolutely right on Cyrix. Andy Brown and I dreamed up the Cyrix MediaGX integrated x86 processor and drove that initiative into production at Cyrix with a great team in Colorado. But Cyrix was already in the x86 processor business and I certainly didn’t conceive of the architecture or business model for Cyrix overall or the socket-compatible/clone processors. Jerry Rogers and Tom Brightman were the founders and a great engineering team in Dallas, led by Kevin McDonough drove the designs.
I also wouldn’t say that Dell DCS inspired Facebook to start OCP.
The parody typo is great. Uso nailed it – it’s a fortuitous meta-error. 😉

]]>Transcription error, but you have to admit, that’s pretty damned funny….
]]>The parody of parity.
]]>Total nuclear war right now between AMD and Intel in the markets for processors.
And this is informative, “we have pretty much kept the original cadence, although I made the decision to slide Genoa for two quarters because we wanted to intercept CXL.”
