Thema: Re: China and change

Übergeek 바둑이: Just reminds me of something I learnt re new televisions....

6 years is the expected lifetime till major parts break and it becomes to costly to fix. If your TV lasts longer.. think yourself lucky.
I see windows built with plastic parts that are designed to have a short lifetime.. the metal version lasts longer but some just use the plastic.

In the end companies are in the business of selling items. So nothing today as such is built to last like back in the days of the industrial revolution era.
