BF>And how have you figured that out? How can they pay the same prize as us

BF>Then he have to pay for food, cloths and rent. How much is then left?
BF>Can he then afford to buy a computer for say $500? Don't think so, even if
BF>it's Made in China.
BF>Do you still think that the Economics of Hardware exist in China?
