Intel to build a factory in China
Intel confirmed the plans to construct a factory in Dalian, northern China. It will use 300mm wafers and cost $2.5 billion. When the factory is done in 2010 it will be designated Fab 68.
For the past 15 years Intel hasn't constructed any new facilities at a new location, added to that it will also be the first fab located in Asia. China is a rapidly growing market, Intel hopes an investment in this market will better their service Asia.

Which is weird because the date that intel posted it was today and it looked the same as something ive read before. Maybe it was in Time magazine...
