CNET breaks a shocking story

The most idiotic piece of journalism I've seen today:

The sleek Mac Mini from Apple Computer costs $499 at retail, but the total sum of the parts is less, says research firm iSuppli.
(...)
The total does not include costs for intellectual property, software, licensing fees, shipping, marketing or other expenses, so Apple's total bill for putting a Mac Mini together is actually higher.

Thank you for buying Business For Dummies.
