They rock.. my bro went there last summer and the technology blew his mind.. I want to do a co-op at a company this summer.
-first post-
How much does all that that technology cost again?? I bet he couldn't afford most of it (like all the Japanese people). I'm personally sick and tired of people (including BBR editors) praising Japan, South Korea, China, and complaining how much the US sucks. It's just not true. Y'all should go live in another country for a few years, then come back to appreciate this country.

| Re: Japan is years ahead I'm still waiting for those 'compelling applications', too. Oh, wait... sending a pic of some road sign I'm passing to my uncle across the country *IS* a compelling application, in some peoples' books. Sorry.. nevermind.
I'm perfectly happy to let countries like Japan test these things out for us, so we can get them in 5 years or so - if they are worth having. Half the crap over the past couple decades I've heard about like this.. just doesn't exist anywhere, anymore. So the Japanese wasted all their money on the stuff (and they wonder why their economy hit the toilet before anyone else's started going into mild recession), and we just get the stuff that works.
Forgive me, but I'm perfectly happy to save my money until things become proven, and until the compelling applications not only really, honestly, exist (not just on some 'visionary's' chalkboard, either) and actually.. oh.. you know.. Work. OH! and are worth a damn, too.

Exactly! Focus HERE! North America, NOT JAPAN, or South Korea or other countries.
