Jim, Re: ((399-287)/399)*100=28% profit margin

Whoo, nice profit. How about you start your own
division to sell this and pocket that ? BTW,
NSM just said that they have problem selling their
CPUs so you may get a better deal with MediaGX(more
profit).

Memory and OS???
Maybe even input devices would be cool too.
And warranty servicing must cost something.

re:((399-287)/399)*100=28% profit margin

i hope you're joking... 28%!!! on a $399 system...you forgot a few items like software, services, direct advertising, and your assembly number is too low.
