"1,100 employees, 500,000 sq. ft. 3m mobos. 600,000 graphics cards. Big numbers, lots of photos. See how it all fits together."
Check here


ZX-S & C64 are still my favourites ;-)

Those dust free environments are crazy, I have been to a few large plastic making factory's to fix machines and I had to fully suit up, hats shoe covers everything, always interesting to see how stuff like that works!
If I had a hammer.. I'd hammer in morning.

Interesting.

A few subtitles with process descriptions would have been helpful to fully understand what is going on but it is impressive.

Now maybe you should run a competition with a winning prize of an all expenses paid visit to the factory. I could do with a holiday!  :D
Remember, when all else fails a cup of tea and a good swear will often help! It won't solve the problem but it will make you feel better.
