[ARC5] When Them Chinese Caps Say "400VDC"

Certainly when I was buying chips, the Japanese parts were always preferable.

The Japanese learnt in the 1950s that you can make 100,000 cameras; 99,999
perfectly, and 1 poorly. It's the 1 that will be remembered.

I had a US car at one time. It was a POS. I will NEVER buy another, no
matter how much they advertize. NEVER.

You never get a second chance to make a fiurst impressiuon- fool me once
shame on you; fool me twice shame on me.

I was recently screwed by Sears on a mismarked Craftsman socket set. I
will never buy anything more from Sears.

YMMV,

-John
