[ElNono]

"In a 9 billion dollar investment, Apple's A5 chips will now be produced in Austin, TX (http://www.forbes.com/sites/timworstall/2011/12/17/amazing-apple-actually-buys-something-made-in-america/), in a new Samsung factory that is apparently 'the largest-ever foreign investment in Texas.'"
According to the article, the factory's been churning out chips since the beginning of this month.

Us Parts Changes got paid from a range of $18 to $39 per hour at LSI Logic in 2001. I wonder what the Parts Changers at Samsung get paid?
