Globalfoundries to ship first 28nm chips by early 2011

FUD Zilla heard Globalfoundries will start taking orders for 28nm chips in mid-2010, but the first chips won't be ready until early 2011.
The fact that the company has SRAM test chips showcased at Computex means that they are very snatching some TSMC customers away and trying to win some money.

The “separation” of AMD and its manufacturing fabs will definitely put more pressure on TSMC and we definitely stand that competition is a great thing, and it will make lazy TSMC push harder to keep its existing customers.
