The guy at Best Buy said "be sure to purchase the extended warranty because there is no one in the state of Maine that repairs HDTV projection TV's and if it breaks in the next four years we will just replace it"

Of course if it does break down
during the warranty, they'll find a way to blame
you for it and void the warranty, or just claim that there's a "prorated deductible" or some such nonsense. Sales people will say
anything to sell one of those extended warranties, and the truth comes out
later. I bought a cellphone at Radio Shack once, and the sales pitch for the extended warranty was "The extended warranty will replace the battery pack, since Lithium batteries only last about 6 months." I wrote down the name of the sales guy
and his manager's name, didn't buy the extended warranty, and filed a deceptive sales practices complaint with the company after
another sales rep looked at me like I was nuts for quoting the original salesman's claim two days later at another Radio Shack store.

Well, after China you're next RCA may have a tag that says "Made in Occupied Iraq".

That would, of course, have to be
after one of the Chinese companies learns how to make a semi-reliable VCR. That's just like what happened to Sony. In the early 60's, their products were
scrap; by the early 70's, they started to make decent gear; then Samsung came along in the late 70's and nearly ran the Japanese economy out of business by the late 90's.
