I won't argue. What I meant about Minelab is, I hadn't heard of them until about 5 years ago.

That's the best proof of what i just said in previous post; "USA market is protected..."!Originally posted by Justin E View Post
The fact is that Minelab started back in middle '80 ('86 if i recall correctly) and was good even than!
But major breakthrough Minelab made in early '90, here in EU.
Nowdays Minelab is "old bone" along with much older White's and Fisher.
Minelab and White's will probably survive and stay a bit longer with us. Unlike the others...
XP is coming.. and it is coming pretty aggressive!Comment

I don't know the details, but i assume that they are still small company in process of growing yet.Originally posted by Justin E View Post
Maybe they don't need new markets yet, maybe don't have such production capabilities yet?
They "just" appeared. I heard for XP first time few years ago.
Had XP Gold Max Power for several months. Was delighted with it. Best coinshooter i ever had!
Recently i had chance to see, test and work a bit with Deus. Also delighted, even more!
Plan to buy one very soon!Comment

Part of the problem is the same reason we can't get a new Unimog around here. The US govt and all the regulations, paperwork and such. A lot of good tools and technology have been scared off over it.Comment

That's how govt is protecting own market and industry.Originally posted by Justin E View Post
Could be good up to some point.
Also could turn bad.
We here experienced that pretty well.
After Socialism gone, all of the sudden all the borders "opened" for foreign products - and local industry busted like that!
In case of Unimog; i really do wander , because Benz is already there!?
Must be some politics?

That stinks! I always try to support local businesses whenever possible. However, if a foreign company has a better option, I'll give it a shot. Binz got tired of trying to meet the emissions regulations, from what I hear.
You're from the former Soviet Union?Comment

You must know about funny Yugo? Have you seen "Die Hard" where Sam Jackson and Bruce Willis are trying to drive it faster than it can?

Cool! I went to school with a few people from Russia. I have always found the history of the region fascinatinh. Wish I knew more...Comment

Actually there are no much similarities between us and Russians, except that we all are Ortodox and do consider each others as "brothers".Originally posted by Justin E View Post
Otherwise we had much different history, displaced far from each others, speaking different language and have different customs and mentality.
We are in Europe, Balkans (although not members of EU yet, despite the fact that we took a part in it's designing) and Russians are far from here.
Somehow (funny but true) we're closer to middle Europeans than to Eastern's.
Nikola Tesla, Michael Pupin, Ivo Andric, Novak Djokovic... and of course - Divac (L.A. Lakers among few others) were and are Serbians. Who else?
Hundreds more that you maybe know about... how about Karl Malden?
Have you heard about him?Comment

Oops! Showing my lack of geography. I've heard the name. Of course, I've never been good with names.Comment

But certainly you can't miss weird Al Yankovich (Serbian name, although seems not Serbian)!Originally posted by Justin E View Post
