So how is/was Fujitsu's laptop manufacturing tailored toward flexibility? I want the details. If all you can do is passive aggressively repeat vague ideas that were printed in mainstream management and manufacturing texts decades ago, don't respond at all. Nobody cares about or wants your input.

And you think that someone from Fujitsu (where it's 8 in the evening, BTW) is going to jump in here and explain their factory layout to you, because you've put your foot down? The best general answer you are going to get is "They made it using whatever process they used to make prototypes. Probably". You want names, ranks, and serial numbers - try writing to Fujitsu. Preferably while being more polite.

  So in other words, you have nothing useful to contribute, but wikiable factoids. Don't fucking respond. It would be better for everyone involved if the thread died, than if I wasted my time trying to cajole information out of people that clearly know no more than I do. This entire thread was me taking a shot in the dark to see if any experienced EEs/industrial engineers/etc. had any interesting insight to give on the subject. Stroking your dick at your amateur understanding of manufacturing processes serves no-one but yourself. I understand this is a hard impulse for people like you to overcome, but you don't have to respond to every post you see. Next time, try shutting the fuck up when someone asks a question that you can't respond to. I don't know everything, and I don't pretend to know everything, so I don't condescend towards people unless I know I have a world-class understanding of a topic. I would rather have my score at -50 and be forced to create another account, than argue with people that have NOTHING to contribute but want to give me shit for asking questions that their pea brains aren't equipped to answer. EDIT: Wish I could have had a real conversation with you on a site where that isn't fucking impossible due to "rate restrictions" for wrongthinkers. I really thought we could have gotten along, even after your second shithead reply that I tried to draw something constructive out of. EDIT EDIT: Who are you voting for, wannabee EE?

    Guess what - you can't tell us what to do, any more than you can order Fujitsu's management to appear before you and testify. Not being the dictator of the universe is very unpleasant, but most of us have learned to live with that by the age of 3. And if you think I've been commenting here specifically for your edification, that's wrong too. As for being downvoted and needing a new account - I personally never care enough any more to get involved with that, but yeah, that's a good guess by the time after the West Coast wakes up, so have fun with that.

    Yeah, the Man has been busy keeping you down, hasn't he? I appreciate your offer of friendship, but since this morning, after a conversation with the neighborhood not-quite-right-in-the-head lady, it would appear that I am getting all the crazy douchebag cultural immersion that I could possibly want. But thanks anyway.
