Hi<br><br>Gee I remember after the days that you mention and when it as the in- thing to focus on core competencies that operations like the pc fab and metal shops were either shut down or sold. The old GVG metal shop was sold to a group that has several locations and is still running and doing metal work for many of the GV video companies. Boards for a long time have been stuffed outside and over seas. Now the final assembly and test are going somewhere. We may learn more as the rumblings go around town. <br>

<br>It is interesting that they quote employment number from back a couple of years ago. Wonder what it really is today. I was there 76-98 and it was wonderful.<br><br>Randy<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Jul 4, 2012 at 11:04 PM, Pat McGowan <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:pmcgowan@ncpvideo.com" target="_blank">pmcgowan@ncpvideo.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

<br>
Remember taking the factory tour 35 years ago with Tom Sleeman and seeing all the 1600's move down the line and into final test. It was magic.<br>
<br>
If an "outsource" builds and tests can it really carry a "Made by Grass Vally" tag? Very sad.<br>
