Mr. Buff has said that the front face plate is labeled Made in USA because that part was made here, but not the battery or the charger and whatever else. So what you have here is a Frankenstein with parts dug from different graves then.
That\'s not what he said. He did not say the \"Made in USA\" label shows because that particular part was made here. He did say individual components are marked for their location of manufacture, and that\'s true anywhere. Open of your computer and examine the circuit boards.
I build my own computers. I determine the requirements, spec the parts, design the system. The components come from a variety of places--Singapore, China, the Philippines, Japan, South Korea, Thailand, Mexico. None of those components is a bare resister or capacitor--they are all full components like hard drives and circuit boards. I just wire, plug, and screw.
Where is the computer made, however? How can the computer be said to have been manufactured by anyone except me?
