"1,100 employees, 500,000 sq. ft. 3m mobos. 600,000 graphics cards. Big numbers, lots of photos. See how it all fits together."

Those dust free environments are crazy, I have been to a few large plastic making factory's to fix machines and I had to fully suit up, hats shoe covers everything, always interesting to see how stuff like that works!

WOW... what a process! I only got to see this no.
Talk about going gree - they even have Air Showers - haha

These FUJI machines are HUGE

yet so much manual work still happens.

Thx for sharing this

Thanks runn3R, very interesting and even better in video.

Interesting.

A few subtitles with process descriptions would have been helpful to fully understand what is going on but it is impressive.

Now maybe you should run a competition with a winning prize of an all expenses paid visit to the factory. I could do with a holiday!

Dark Mantis · « **Reply #13 on:** June 29, 2010, 12:12:34 pm »

I second that
