[Arm-netbook] Injection Molding Cost

[Bill Kontos]

Hi, I remember luke mentioning in the past that injection molding
would be too expensive for such a low-volume project. However I found
this project from crowd supply that is using molds for production on a
total of ~3800 pledges

The numbers don't make any sense given the ~100k cost luke has
mentioned in the past( the 2 keyboard halves have different designs).
What am I getting wrong here ? The factory they will be using is
located in Europe.
