It's just a photoop so it's not attractive to have the exec in suit. It's interesting that that wafer would probably have been worth about $200G. I counted a radius of ~15 dies and assumed a price of $300 per chip.Originally posted by: jiffylube1024

That's awesome! You have the guy in the lab equipment wearing all kinds of body cover possible to keep the wafer clean and useable, and next to him some executive in a suit, probably breathing particles and junk all over the wafer, making it unusable.
Btw, cool looking wafer!

I have little doubt that the wafer in question was some sort of experiment in which it was never expected to be actual retail product.Originally posted by: zephyrprime

He's trying to save Intel's Netburst architecture. Quick - it's flatlining. Clear!!!
(ok sorry, low blow. I can't help myself )
Too much chafing!Originally posted by: PrayForDeath
I hear those scientists go commando in their bunny suits to avoid contamination
And usually into a million pieces!Originally posted by: potato28
I broke 1 of those once, very sharp.
