Kevin, Yes, you are correct, it is a very general question and not really possible to answer but there are certain things that you can consider: The range can be anywhere from $10,000 up to $100,000. The first and so far last kiosk I worked on had a budget around $16,500 which included my work in s/w design, database building, video digitizing, image scanning and graphic creation, the use of a development computer, the kiosk computer, use of a kiosk printer, service for 3 months, a custom made kiosk (a 7 foot shoe), a bribe, consultancy fees and profit. This project lost money but was designed as a prototype. Production houses tend to charge in the range of $50 to $100 per hour of development time plus expenses. So all you have to do is calculate how long it will take… You might want to drop by the Multimedia forum for more input if you want more info.
