Ofcourse there is a race bias here.
Why is it so difficult for people to digest the fact that an "Indian" or a "Chinese" company can be truly world class; i.e. Global in all respects? I find it a bit immature and presumtous(sic) when you think that Lenovo, a multi billion $ conglomerate may possibly not know their shit. Just because the majority shares of that division by held by a company which is ethnically chinese, but in all respects global, you are thinking that its a chinese company. Even if it is, so what? You think they'll have general Mao's screensavers default? And the "Cheap feel" chinese goods that you talk about ARE cheap. and they are not branding/marketing them as ever lasting. You get what you pay for. Could you elaborate on some of these skewed company policies please? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
