  I would agree that South Korea is more advanced than Japan, and in point Samsung. Do you guys know the story that happened a few years back? The head of Samsung Electronics came and toured America to find out first hand what we thought of their products and needless to say he was not happy. So, he went back to Korea and reinvented the company, and part of his plan was to hire the best minds in the business and that is exactly what happened. He was able to get the three top minds from Sony as well as people from other major companies to go to work for Samsung. Im old enough to remember when we would openly laugh at Samsung and LG and Hyundai and now I am amazed that this little country is pounding out so much good stuff. I never though Japan could be matched and I think South Korea is a force and only getting stronger. The brand image of Samsung is only getting better and their products are amazing. I hope it keeps up, I would love to sneak into their R&D department!
