Intel's Per-Chip Cost Averages $40

Fedorpheux writes "According to a report by the analysts at In-Stat, Intel's average cost per chip is about $40. These same chips, such as the Pentium 4s, can cost consumers up to $637. This $40 average cost has remained rather steady since 2003. This cost does not include money spent on marketing or development, but it does explain how Intel can continue its profits even in this era of quickly dropping prices in computer hardware."
