Find me a single electronic device on the planet that isn't made with some Chinese parts. AFAIK all passive electronics components are made in China.

- giantg2 5y agoThere's no way the DOD would allow only China to make components that their contracts require. I'm sure there are domestic producers. Here's a site from a quick search. https://www.tedss.com/LearnMore/American-Made-Capacitors https://www.tedss.com/LearnMore/American-Made-Capacitors Here is a site for US built computers with the option to specify US only components. https://usamadeproducts.biz/electronics-computers.html https://usamadeproducts.biz/electronics-computers.html
- SavantIdiot 5y agoYou misunderstood my point: Made in USA != all parts made in the USA. Kinda like how "Made in the USA" cars/trucks are often 90% made overseas then sent to the US for final assembly to earn that sticker. I'll ignore the fact that the very first link in your computer URL is Apple, which does not have a 100% made in the USA product. The second computer company in your link is Digital Storm. They use MSI boards which are made in Taiwan and China.
- giantg2 5y agoNo, I didn't miss your point. The link I posted has computer manufacturers that say they can use US based components, including in-house engineered parts. I also showed that components are made in the US and that the DOD contracts will require that Chinese parts not be used.
