I have my plastics for my joysticks done out of Indiana, my PCB's from a
firm in Utah, I source my IC's and components from Mouser. The only
things I can't get here in the US are my custom silicon contact parts,
there is no money in them, so nobody seems to want to do them and I
can't find anyone in the US that actually MAKES, not sells USB cables,
all the companies source them in from China, so I buy those direct.
All of the assembly is done here in NY and shipped.

* Most Agilent test gear (made in Malaysia instead)

Japan, compacts are usually made in... drumroll... Malaysia)
* DiscFerrets. All made in my Evil Mad Scientist Lab (tm). Well, some
of the PCBs were made in China -- 0I06 boards (lighter solder mask)
were made by Eurocircuits in either Germany or Holland (I forget
which); the later boards were made in China. But they were *assembled*
in the UK! ("And that's the important part!")
Oh. You were being facetious. Never mind then.
