wtf......this guy reminds me of the old guy on the comedy sketches, who
had his pants puled up to his armpits. this guy has a pocket protector collection. heh, heh ****** Thierry wrote: Hi-San !, "Tokyo Tsushin Kogyo" so called Sony in 1955, sold at that time a new transistor, competitor to the first TR-1 fromTexas Instrument that entered the US and European markets and did a real revolution. For marketing reasons, M.Ibuka and his partner Akio Morita changed its name in "Sony". A young, dynamic and very agressive company was born. You know the rest of the story. For your information, in 2004 revenues (ttm) of Sony Corp., SNE, http://finance.yahoo.com/q/ks?s=SNE, reached approx. $70 billions for a gross profit of $20 billions, his annual earning growth exceeded 735%, with 16% of his shares held by institutions and insiders, not a small company... Not only Sony became a major company represented worldwide including to the small dealer located down to your street, but he has extended his know-how in all personal and domestic activities : computing, imaging, audio, video, television, wireless network, robotic, and more. As they say themselves, welcome to the world of Sony, http://www.sony.com ! Since that time, within two generations Japan became in spite of everything one of the major Powers in the world. Today in all technical areas, from the underground railway to the spacecraft, the efficiency and reliability of japanese and alike components exceed by far the quality of any European or US product. Look around you : the most reliable cars are japanese or korean (5 first, even before Germans), the best transceivers are japanese too, and in all your home, if you look closely, most of your equipements are made in Japan or their vital components (chips, etc) are made in the country of the rising sun. The small country who so-called lost face is winning the economical war. Today however the sunny horizon of our friends-San displays some dark clouds, http://www.dallasfed.org/research/sw.../swe0304c.html, they have a lot of excellent competitors in JA, VK, UK, F, K, etc but they haven't loose their place yet, they are winners. 73 Thierry, ON4SKY http://www.astrosrf.com/lombry/qsl-ham-history.htm "willy wonka" wrote in message ... ? |

Look around you : the most reliable cars are japanese or korean (5 first, even before Germans) This is certainly the first time I've heard Korean cars described as reliable! They are getting better, however. Certainly, when they first came to the States, Hyundai was the laughingstock of the automotive industry. I base my opinion on the last car magazines "Car of the world" and alike that sorted cars according various criteria, sales, problems/reliability, customer satisfaction, etc. I didn't said that ALL JA or HL cars were perfect, or I should... I base mine on Consumer Reports magazine, which surveys owners of vehicles sold in the United States and tabulates the results. According to them, two Hyundai models have now reached "average" reliability. KIAs have been universally awful. Of course, Daewoo doesn't exist anymore, but, when they did, were also universally awful. -- +----------------------------------------------+ | Bob Schreibmaier K3PH | E-mail: | | Kresgeville, PA 18333 | http://www.dxis.org | +----------------------------------------------+ |
