It may not be the most competitive fab on the market, but Hacker Fab is already within reach of a well-funded makerspace. I haven’t read up on their cleanroom procedures, but I assume all the costs of that are included in their breakdown.
It doesn’t necessarily need to be competitive with TSMC sub-3nm. CPUs at 1000nm can still be incredibly useful.
Yeah, but look at how much other stuff that is highly-manufactured goes into that process? It’s not about just the end product, it’s about the entire supply chain needed to get the stuff to make the 1 product.
