It seems our "darlings" in Redmond, Washington decided it was too dear for them to make that lovely little item called X-box in the US so they moved it to Hungary. That where and when trouble started for MS. Sales didn

Microsoft, the American way???? someone better pass me that crack bowl, it needs to go away!!!!!

One more scary part of this is the fact that while Flextronics keeps the chinese working like hell, the "brain work" is in Sweden. Yes, the thinking behind X-box is in my country! Here, they are supposed to come up with new ideas for the "black ugly box".

It looks a lot like the makers of clothes. Nike, Adidas and other companies like them have factories in Asia where CHILDREN are sewing and cutting. The clothes are then shipped off to another (richer) country where they sew the brand name on. All in the name of profit...

This is a really stupid move, and not only from the human rights and Chineese "slave" labor perspective or the screw the US economy perspective. From what I have read, one of the serious problems XBOX has had is reliability and quality control.

China does NOT make high quality goods.

Maybe George Bush should turn his attention towards China instead of poor Iraq. Saddam, who

No... the United States does good trading with China, so they'd really think it over a hundred times before attacking China.

Now Iraq on the other hand... they sell oil to the United States at a very high price. Luckily for Bush, a dictator is ruling the country, so he can just attack it in the name of democracy and make Iraq a US loving country.

But when will democracy come to the US?

Refalm · « **Reply #8 on:** 29 December 2002, 23:29 »

It did. George Wasington introduced it, but it was destroyed in the US a few decades later.

The main foe to democracy is companies and business and their practices.

I believe we are actually a republic, taking a lot of our ideas from the romans. not a very smart thing i think... considering their fall and everything. democracy was just an idea that passed.

Exactly....Walmart is a shithole of a store, and does not have the lowest prices. It just has a lot of sales because it's marketing targets /*ehem*/ the poor bastards of this country. I swear! When there are 300 people in the layaway line (saw it with my own eyes) ...you have a lot of fucked up people.
