[Mgs] computers - off topic

[Barrie Robinson]

At least you do not suffer from Canadian inferiority 
complex.  Canadians will not buy electronics/software that is 
made/written in Canada.  It has to come from the good old USA or 
Japan (for Japan now read China).  In my experience Canadian tech 
companies opened minuscule offices in California so they could 
correspond with Canadian prospects and look as if they were in 
California.  I was VP Marketing with one company and we were going to 
ship bits to California,assemble them there ( took 15 minutes), and 
thus label them "Made in USA".  Just look what happened to WordPerfect.
