Bill, Re: The cost to make one more CPU is less than $60

Are you sure of that? Keep in mind that AMD has to produce the CPU die in Dresden, fly it to Malaysia, add the package there, fly it to the US and finally sell the CPU. I'd estimate at least $50 costs per CPU for all these steps together. Does anyone have real data on this? (or more sophisticated estimates)
