previous tech/node fabs often build things like the motherboard chipsets, and other things. 100nm node machinery probably isn't used since there is probably enough production capacity from more recent nodes that there isn't any point (as has been pointed out, silicon wafers aren't really much cheaper for the older nodes, so you might as well stamp more processors out with newer tech)
