Just answered this thing. Please bear with me as this is important and goes back many years and it just keeps getting worse as I and others can attest. I do believe this stuff to be appropriate for this forum. Naturally, those closely associated with the supplier may have differint opinions. I have the facts: Well Sir Carl, I've never had a good experience with Sanmina over nearly 20 years but for Hadco's Tech Center and SCI's tech center in Austin but for them closing after my first order. Hadco used to be a prime capability. My last order with them in Haverhill was delayed over a week because of an unanounced closure dictated by Sanmina. You give me one good reason to continue with you people. It's just like 1984 all over again. The whole thing has become Sanminaized. Nothing personal, just putting out the word that most everyone already knows but you, of course.
