("Hewlett-Packard Co said it will temporarily resume manufacturing of its
ill-fated tablet computer * * * H-P didn't say what it would charge for the
new batch of TouchPad, but cautioed potential buyers there might not be
enough to go around. * * * The decision to manufacture a second run, however
, left analysts scratching their heads" because it is estimated H-P lost $
207 for every TouchPad sold (cost to make $306 minus retail price $99)

(paragraph 1: "WHEN the board of HP, the world’s largest computer-maker,
unveiled plans to restructure, it expected the company’s shares to suffer;
but not to crash by 20%. HP’s bosses thought investors would love their
plan to spin off the firm’s low-margin personal-computer (PC) business, but
be wary of their plan to buy Autonomy, a British software-maker, for a
handsome $10.3 billion. In fact, they hated both ideas. On August 19th, the
day after the announcement, they wiped $12 billion off HP’s market value.") | m****m
