  3.  @spamcan9208  nah, judging by most of the comments on this thread, I would say just a basic misunderstanding of how magnetism works is sufficient. plus, there is no danger of exposure from the magnets unless you are walking around in a suit... made of magnets... every day.

  5. american companies do american things. it's not about competing through innovation, it's all about suppressing your competition and using better advertising slogans. I was there on the front lines when this battle was being fought in the 1990s. NVIDIA had absolutely the worst hardware, but the best advertising and a very very flexible software system. It paralleled the war between IBM and Microsoft OS, with IBM being far far better quality and stability, but MS spending WAYYYYYYY more on advertising.
