Four U.S. senators introduced legislation today that would allow American companies to petition for steeper import tariffs to counter the benefit of any undervalued currencies in China or other countries.

That got me thinking.
What components within my PC or peripherals that I use are made in China? My initial thoughts were that few would be simply because of the fact that most of the stuff inside my case or that I use with my computer are of good or high quality and have always had good reviews. So here is the list that I have come up with so far:
Asus P5B Deluxe Wifi-AP motherboard - Made in China
Corsair Dominator memory - Assembled in USA
Sharkoon Golfball 120mm case fans - Made in China
Saitek Eclipse II keyboard - Made in China
Logitech X-540 5.1 speakers - Made in China
Logitech MX Revolution mouse - Made in China
Olympus Mju-410 4megapixel digital camera - Made in China
Zalman VF900-Cu VGA cooler - Made in Korea
Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 CPU - Made in either Costa Rice, China, Philippines, or USA
Seasonic M12 600w modular PSU - Made in China
XFX Geforce 7900GS - Assembled in China with parts from Taiwan, USA, Korea and oh China again.
Seagate hard drive - haven't found out
Samsung DVD burner - haven't found out yet
Antec P180B case - guessing USA but could be wrong
Broadband modem - Made in China
Everything listed above has performed faultlessly and does what it claims to do. Most of it was made in China. Not all products from China are garbage or crap. Food for thought. :hmm:
