Less than 4% of CPU market is above $200

Posted on Monday, April 07 2008 @ 3:35 CEST by Thomas De Maesschalck
FUD Zilla dug up some data by Mercury that indicates only 3.4% of all processor shipments cost more than $200.
This is the best bang for the buck market and according to Mercury in 2008 it is expected that 96.6 percent of the market will be under $200. This mean that only 5.5 million CPUs that are planned to sell in 2008 are going to cost more than $200. Shocking isn’t it?
