Tom's Hardware Visits PCPartner In Dongguan, China

PCPartner. PC...Who?
When a company like Zotac asks us if we’d like to take a tour of its factory, it’s hard to say no. After all, we’re geeks at heart and want to know where our hardware comes from. Besides, you could say we were in the neighborhood anyway, what with Computex and all.
So why did the bus that picked us up at our hotel unload us at PCPartner? Simple. PCPartner is one of those huge companies that’s a big industry player but that you never hear of. Oh, and it also happens to be the organization that owns Zotac.

I JUST CAN'T STAND THIS STUPID LAYOUT, browsing through photos and click 'read more', what the heck is this??? Are you trying to reinvent the wheel????
American wages have been stagnant ever since "fair trade" became a Republican buzzword. Importing things from China incurs higher shipping costs that substantially offset cheaper labor. Shipping all of our money overseas creates inflation. Taking those 3 undeniable facts into the equation, if we did make things here, we'd actually be able to afford them, even if more expensive, because we'd all have good paying jobs.
People used the same argument against abolishing slavery (the previous art of cheap labor), and I don't recall that destroying our country and causing Newegg's prices to skyrocket.
