Klaus, Re: it would result in relatively low volume (at least for Intel-relations). Say a million per year, or even two or even three
What generates more revenue? 3M processors sold in a year at a $1500 ASP, or 30M processors sold at a $150 ASP?
This may be a gross over-simplification, but the point is that low volumes are acceptable for high ASP products, especially when you figure the margins are probably higher.
