There's a difference between something that's difficult to do and something that can't be done. If my boss asked me to do something impossible, sure, I couldn't do it. But if they asked me to do something I thought would be difficult and would interfere with other stuff, I'd say so. But then if he changed his mind and didn't want me to do it, that would not be me refusing to do it; it would be the boss deciding it wasn't worth it.
Now you're claimining that the factory management essentially "knows better". That's fine, but then it's still *YOU*, *YOUR COMPANY*, *YOUR MANGEMENT*, *ASTAK IN THE USA*, that's not willing to make a custom machine. Because you've made the judgement that it's not worth the effort because you believe factory management when they say the effort is too high. But you can't blame *them* for it. You can't say they *won't* do it unless you've ordered them to do it anyway and they still refuse.
You tried to deflect responsibility for your company's own decisions onto some faceless Asians, making it look like their lack of ability or willingness, and now you're claiming it's because you actually respect their judgement. Regardless, it's not their fault you're not making a custom Astak... it's your own.

There is a major difference between asking your factory to build in features and telling them to build a custom device. We have not gone near asking them to build a custom device for us yet. The devices we get out of Netronix are Netronix designs with our modifications. We are attempting to get Asian devices that are more in line with what the American marketplace seems to want. This is beneficial for the end user as the devices are thoroughly proven in Asia (and, in some cases, Europe) before we bring the models to North America.
I am sorry,Sir Bruce, that somehow you take offense over our own dealings with our factory. I was trying to provide some information that I thought may be useful. Apparently it was not, and I will cut down on such info in the future.
