But...
so many companies swear by outsourcing to China.

It is shameful that an icon of American computer technology like IBM sold it's desktop and notebook operations to the same people that put lead paint on our children's toys and feed their own people cardboard while using our money to fund a totalitarian communist regime.

I refuse to acknowledge Lenevo as an option to any consumer or business, and avoid IBM if possible.

It's hard to do, but I try to aviod products made in China. Until they actually decide to take responsibility and tighten their quality control, there is no reason to continue fueling their demand to build cheap crap that fills our selves.

Now that Gateway owns E-Machines and Accer owns Gateway, even E-Machines are of higher quality then Lenevo. At least they use the better MB's built by Intel instead of outsourcing to some crap China factory.

Dell is second on that list. Dell has become some of the worst junk I have had to work on. MB failures by the dozens.

Sigh... oh well, not like I can change it though. As long as people want cheap computers, we have to put up with crap manufacturers.
