      CS>There's been a lot of talk and rumble about that in the Apple forums. My       CS>concern is not so much the rising cost with the higher US labor, it's       CS>the quality control I'm thinking about. The Chinese may provide cheaper       CS>labor, however, the quality of their products are actually very good.              I have been inpressed by what I hear about the Chinese dedication to       Tight Quality Control and I am sure it wil go down no matter wehere the       Mac's are built in the US.

First class. The Navy seems to know how to really spiff things up.              They recently did the NX at the 32nd Street Naval Station. It was very       nice before and it is even better now. Some years back they redid the       Commisary which was fairly old and in bad shape. They repalced it with       the Largest Commissary in the Navy, and like you said really spiffed up.              As a side note then have gone to the latest base security system. For       many years an ID check has been in effect. Now the gate guards have       a hand held wireless scanner. They scan the back of the ID card and wait       for the OK on the Scanner before letting you in.       ---        þ SLMR 2.1a þ Typo Tom strikes agaoin        * Origin: Fidonet Since 1991 And Still Here.
