things coming from China (in other markets) now-a-days, I can't say this 
surprises me.  My first VCR (a RCA model) laster nearly 17 years.  The last one 
I bought (an Samsung model) lasted about 3 years.  Then there was my 4 year old

  Dear John,
    No arguments here.  I tried in vain to lobby Sanda Kan's V.P. of

than DCC chip mfgs....and us...
