How to Build a Mainboard: ECS Production Tour

Unts writes "Ever wondered how they put a mainboard together? HEXUS.net has taken a tour of ECS's production facilities, following a mainboard from PCB creation, right through to burn-in testing. From the article: 'The final production testing is done by skilled female technicians who have the ability to test two at a time, in tandem. They've got some test hardware that I'm jealous of (fast-removal memory modules, CPU heatsinks that don't need full attachment, PCI and PCI Express logic testers, etc.) and can have a mainboard fully functionally tested in a matter of minutes.'"

Trolling for vulgar comments I say.

I like how us "starbucks latte sipping, SUV driving fatties" get sneered at for being appalled at the worker's conditions... apparently we should be grateful they're not eating gruel and getting beaten with a stick if they underperform. Darn us evil Americans! Always thinking other people should have the same standard of living that we do!
