$74. My estimate is the manufacturer gets at most (85-90% of retail)/9. The divide by 9 takes into account adder, assembly etc the 85-90% seller's margin, shipping form manufacturer, etc. This probably overestimates how much the manufacturer actually gets. So $74 gives about $7 to $7.40 per 64Mb chip. The lowest quote on Micron PC-100 64 MB today is $89 (about $8.50-8.90 per chip). all retail prices from pricewatch.com which is updated many times a day
