You mean Mitsubishi = Mitsuhama. No! ;)
And as another example, Motorola is similiar, though not quite as wide
spread. The company I work for competes with Motorola in the paging
market, but if you were to open up some of our hardware, you'd see Motorola
chips. Interesting, eh?
Maybe this was mentioned once and I missed it, but anyone else notice that
our time can make viable clones, but SR, they can't? Think the mana sphere
has something to do with that? ;)
