Reading this article reminded me of the fakes we have in the past with older cpus...
This article is about bearings, but in reality it could be about any product:
http://www.electronicsweekly.com/blogs/engineering-design-problems/2007/04/bogus-bearings-look-more-real.html
The other day in conversation with a customer, he told me about the fake PSP console he had.. it worked great, apart from the wifi, which is what lead him to find out it was a fake.
Is anything on eBay from China the actual product? |

You have the right to suspect sth. from China but you should not suspect everything from China _________________ My vintage CPU collection:www.cpumuseum.com

| It's not just ebay, sites like dealextreme.com are full of poor copies. I am sure there are many others. |

Take it easy. There are always some people likes to make such generalization.

Well, the evidence seems quite convincing. I suppose they could claim the bubbles were space debris?  |
