  Boeing corporate offices are in Chicago.  Therefore Boeing aircraft are a product of Illinois?  Of course not.  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.
