You are missing the point completely. But that's not surprising in the
least!

Ah, yes, the inevitable attempt at misdirection when caught being a
flaming hypocrite.

Not sure if they are union, but Dell at least assembles them in the USA.
Pricey too as far as PCs are concerned.

By the looks of it, crappy PCs union priced with Asian parts.

Costco sells ZT Systems, USA assembled.

Also Dell, USA assembled.

Just hat you are a hypocrite.

None of those alternatives run the Apple OS as their primary operating
system. They're just clone PC's. Most Dell computers are not USA
assembled. If I wanted a clone PC for my use, I might have considered
one. But I didn't.

Earlier this year, I bought a new PC for my wife. Her computing needs at
home are minimal: word processing, email, web browsing, iTunes for her
iPod, Picasa for her photos. It was a Dell. When it arrived, I opened it
up to see what was in the plastic desktop box. Plain vanilla
motherboard, Intel Core i5 cpu, 8 gigs of non-descript ram, graphics on
motherboard, et cetera. All Asian parts and the sort of assembly a
12-year-old kid could do in his sleep. No "Assembled in the USA" sticker.
