It's the Germans and the Japanese that are currently at the top of the heap when it comes to CNC Machinery... However there are a lot of good American companies up there too, one of the most popular brands in the USA is HAAS, although their 5/4 Axis machines aren't very special.
It's mostly because they focused on that market and become very good at what they did. You'll see in about 20-30 years China leading that area of industry since they have such a huge focus on manufacturing.
Anyways, it's the people ultimately programming the machines and the software used to program the machines that are the real driving force behind this industry, without the software these machines would just be dumb lumps of metal.
Who said any such thing? The point is simply that if you live far away from main society centers, you will most likely not have access to high speed internet.
What? When I play my racing games I'm in my seat with a G25 steering wheel playing "games" like iRacing.

NYC has one of the lowest crime rates in the country. Try again.
You chose to live in a rural area, that's what happens.
I pay $99 for 50Mbit over here in NYC.
He's talking about Verizon Wireless customers, not landline.
But yeah, it's easy to misquote an article to get a horde of /. nerds over zealous.
What? There's an AJAX version of slashdot? I never knew, been stuck in the same layout for years now.
Yes, completely ignoring the historical context of GDI and it's necessity for backwards compatibility.
Slashdot is filled with Tech luddites. Kinda odd.
50%??!! What a waste! I clock my computer down to about 5% of speeds, damn the programs if they need any more then that!
All it means is that the game isn't a good sim.

I've got the cure!
It's called a condom and not screwing nasty hoes!
Because the HTC Evo (4G phone with front facing camera) doesn't have a kick stand to support it on a flat surface?
Exactly, god forbid someone wants to use Skype for video conferencing!
Yeaaaaaaaaaaah, that's quite a stretch you have there.
