For Google, it's a good bargain... they collect new designs of
   processors for free and for them the fabrication cost (a few thousands
   $) is like a drop of water in the ocean.

   This said I doubt this will be a massive production. First there are
   selective criteria. They will not build anything. It has to be
   relatively quality design so probably they'll only produce a few dozens
   per year.

   Seriously a talented chip designer cannot find $2,000 to manufacture
   their own prototype?
