    Undergrads at most universities build their own CPUs. It's just a matter of coughing up the $$ to fabricate them.

    So what you meant to say was Undergrads at most universites design their own cpus. Using your definition I could go build another Great Pyramid. I just wouldn't have to actually BUILD it, just draw some pictures.
