Yes, the RoHS is just EU protectionism. We should have told them in the beginning that we will not participate. And say OK then, don't buy our gear then. But we are pussys now, no balls to stand up. We cave to them EU'ers.

Pete's correct. And if you think leadfree is bad, wait 'til you see the affect of upcoming DfE Euroland regulations. Buy stock in Pampers.

Most of the time UK companies seem to pose more of a threat to themselves than that of the offshore manufacturing exodus. Wait 'till he puts his lunch through the oven for an oncore.

Hi Chris. would have loved to have tried PIHIR on the board, except it was single sided. Still, it would have solved the earthing issues.

And soon enough all of those management types who don't understand production will have sub'ed out our work and be saying to themselves... see that wasn't so hard was it?
