AMD’s processors are manufacturered in Germany - a fact that most certainly surprises most every lurker since AMD does not advertise it. I really don't care where the CEO hangs his hat. Only bean counter types feel that is important. A product person instead asks about the important people - the little people. Boeing aircraft are built in Aisa, Washington, et al. Only those who don't know how work gets done (finance types) would call Boeing aircraft a product of Illinois.

Meanwhile, a more interesting point is AMD's strategic objectives. A tripling of production? AMD implies the MBA now running Intel will not solve Intel's management problems.
