Just a heads up for those interested.... The Melco circuit boards ARE assembled here in America. Plano, Texas to be exact. However the chips, resistors, capcitors, and such could be manufactured anywhere in the world and if all the parts are not readily available,... even one, then the delivery deadlines can greatly be affected. I spent ten years running a circuit board manufacturing plant and you wouldn't believe how many head aches I had trying to promise finished products to customers accurately.
