The quality is not the issue, it's these overseas developers who charge rediculously low prices and devalue the entire marketplace. Just like if someone buys a plot of land on your upperscale block and decides to put in a nice trailer to live in.Originally posted by xclusive

Hm... you know, I think that aside from my office chair (which is, admittedly, a very nice leather and chrome affair that makes sweet, sweet love to my asscheeks whenever I sit on it) I don't have any US products here... or at least, none that I can easily identify.
My laptop is a toshiba, my cel phone is a samsung, my landline phone system is northern telecom, my Sony TV and I drive a Toyota.
Oh! I have an Xbox! That, at least, was ASSEMBLED in north america... I think...

Can you even buy American-made products at Wal-Mart?
What will the people do in those small 'all-american' towns that John Cougar Mellencamp sings about? ... where Wal-Mart has destroyed all the competition and is now the only place left to shop?Comment

You Get What You Pay For. Business 101.
Pay for the cheapest labor, then you get...
the cheapest results. If that's what you are looking for, then it's a good deal.
Pay for the medium labor cost, then you get...
the medium results. If that's what you are looking for, then it's a good deal.
Pay a premium, then you get...
premium results. If that's what you are looking for, then it's a good deal.
People charge for the results that they expext to have delivered. People pay for the results that they expect. Anyone offering premium delivery/product/support at an el-cheapo price is lying to you. Anyone offering premium delivery/product/support at a premium price and doesn't deliver premium results has lied to you.
Find someone you believe you can trust, set a price point, and expect delivery of the product according to that price point. You pay cheap, you better expect to get cheap results. You pay premium, you better expect to get premium results.

Does your Toshiba have an Intel processor in it? Those are American, made in America.Originally posted by rickholio

Your Toyota may not be an American brand, but it was most likely assembeled in America.
Not everything with a foreign brand name is built overseas. Just like not everything with a domestic brand name is built here. The auto industry is a great example of this.Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities. -VoltaireComment

The processor is indeed Intel, but intel has fabrication and assembly plants the world over, including denmark, costa rica, china, the phillipines, malaysia, ireland, israel... It may not necessarily have happened in the US. I'm not about to pull apart my lappy to check the manufacture code on it to confirm that, however.Originally posted by NickHimself

And my Toyota was assembled in Canada. I know, I visited the plant where it was made (it's in Cambridge, Ontario FYI). I was fully aware of its point of origin. Many of the parts that go in there are forged in the US, many of them using canadian steel. They also assemble Lexus at that particular plant. Hm... what's the plural of 'lexus'? Lexuses? Lexae? Lexii? Meh.
I did find something that was a little more obviously US in manufacture origin... my HP laserjet!
