From the same web site:

I see chips as a finished product, and patent license should only be extended to the maker of such finished products.

That would all depend upon the terms of the license, wouldn't it? Or are you suggesting that license terms shouldn't be legally enforceable?

any other way and we would all have to pay for each and every piece of technology we use. Could you imagine if the patent holder for CREATING CHIPS decided to go after every manufacturer that put a chip in a hard drive?

It is illegal to use patented technology if you don't have the proper license (whether you are a manufacturer or not). In the case of manufactured goods, it is up to the manufacturer to obtain the proper licenses. If they don't, then you can be sued for using patented technology without a license. Simple. Then to recover your damages you can turn around and sue the manufacturer (maybe even the store that sold it to you) for not obtaining the proper licenses. That's the way the legal system works: everybody sues everybody and it all comes out in the wash.
