Re: ""R&D is expensed, so by the time a product is developed, its revenues are funding the development of the next generation."

No kidding.

You're missing my point. It's one thing to talk about marginal cost of the Celeron (which will be VERY low). It's another thing to talk about whether or not the Celeron is profitable for Intel. If you're talking about the latter, you better figure in the Celeron's share of G&A, S&M, and R&D. You also have to figure in fixed asset depreciation.

Believe me, I understand Tad's post. Tad's post is only half the story.
