Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I just moved into a new apartment and have been reading about all of the new power strips out there, especially the green ones. I was wondering if you had any suggestions about which "green "power strips are out there with decent joules ratings. And when I say green, I mean power strips that have the remotes or switches to turn off all electricity flowing to certain plugs and with at least 2 plugs that are always on. I was looking specifically at sub $50 because I will need two, but if that is not possible I could be convinced otherwise. Thanks!"
It's the Jap dudes that imitate others and claims to be their own. Go learn some histories. I bet you don't even know why Atomic bomb was dropped in Japan, because Japan claims that they are the victim. No? Go watch *any* (popular) Jap related Atomic bombs, why no one admits that they did wrong (in the very first place)? you won't find any, unless you go watch National Geography articles or History Channel, (which obviously you will fall into sleep because you are too kid to watch). Lol, Or, do you even hear Germans saying that they are the victims of the war in WW1/2 ? Hardly, because at least they are freaking gentle, admits and STFU queietly. Honestly sir, go Learn the truth.
As for IT tech issues, its nothing, these lawsuits happen everywhere, every second.
It just 'happened' to be LCD issue, and happened to be under IT tech.
"...'cause they WILL turn around and bit you in the ass..." This is the BUSINESS you kid. Go learn some serious business yourself. You thought Jap companies did not copy or backstap anyone? Lol, you are in the wrong planet. Every company do the similar strategies doing business, either by adding patents, copy/reverse engineering/hire new crews/intership from the *previous* company, or even coincise. In fact, if you look at a little closer, all technologies are the same. If one has it, the other (will) has it, too. The only problem (actually more complex) for these business ppl are, 'how to maximize the rev.' either by claiming for patent tech, or marketing, etc.
And yes, next thing ppl know is,, people like you will believe that sir. Billy Gaty is the God of America and Owner of all American business. Ain't I correct from your perspective?
