Albert, Re:


1) you bought 10 apples at $1 each
2) you can consume only 2 apples before they go bad
3) and no one around to take advantage of the remaining
apples
4) what is your cost per consumed apple?


It seems to be:

1) Take the 8 apples and send them to China on consignment
(actually ~ 3 million).
2) Claim them as X86 market Share. ( They may,
someday, wind up in some sort of machine. )
3) Add that 3 Million to the 1 Million Xbox chips and
claim market share growth.
4) Take the consignment value of the 3M chips and add
them to net sales.
5) Declare a profit.

Albert,

Re: "<edited> for a specially "confused"
1) you bought 10 apples at $1 each
2) you can consume only 2 apples before they go bad
3) and no one around to take advantage of the remaining apples
4) what is your cost per consumed apple? <gggggg>
"

"Little Man" Albert, lets take a better (more realistic) example -->

1) Two men buy apple trees for same price ($xxx)
2) "Little Man's" tree produces 5 ... "Big Man's" produces 50.
3) Market only needs 40 apples
4) Guess who makes money (recovers cost of tree + profit)
5) Guess who loses money (Has "air supply" cutoff <ggg>)

I hope these "lessons" are helping you. <ggg>

Make It So,
Yousef
