#135335 - they build what they're told to build Responding to: ???'s previous message |
Andy Neil said:
but it seems ironic to me that you, in the very country that produces all these USB-only laptops, are bemoaning the lack of an LPT port. The Chinese OEMs build whatever they're told to build by the big Brand Name computer companies. If Dell and Microsoft switched gears and said, "Starting in 2H 2007, all new laptops shall have two RS232 ports and one Centronics parallel port," then you'd see laptops with those ports. You're blaming the wrong people. -a |
