The Taiwan Fujis are TYs...as are the HPs that br0thercr0w 
mentioned.  Again, the tell-tale sign is the off-yellow nut 
on top.  Plus, the ATIP information for HPs and Taiwan Fujis 
is the same.  They're Taiyo Yudens.  I don't know how simpler 
it can get.

As far as the consensus...I'm slightly skeptical on that 
too.  I'll send you Taiwan Fujis (they're TYs, remember), 
tell you they're from Japan, and you'll never know the 
difference.  Why?  Because all of the Fujis are Taiyo 
Yudens!!!

Geesh...this is fun!

WOB on...
