This really is a stunning development and it gets to the point we mentioned in our Q&A about Bearings Manufactured in China. YES, China is a hub in the global trade in counterfeit technology. YES, there are many Chinese manufacturers who can't produce work to Western standards. YES, there are communications and logistics challenges when you work with suppliers on the other side of the world. But... The best manufacturers in China can design and manufacture product on par with ANY of the major multinational bearing manufacturers. This article describes the latest "proof point" for that claim:
"In a threat to U.S. technology dominance, the world’s fastest supercomputer is powered by Chinese-designed semiconductors for the first time. It’s a breakthrough for China’s attempts to reduce dependence on imported technology." From Industry Week.
