There’s a reason why every home with a pool as a fishnet screen covering the pool in Orlando.

I thought the screen was for preventing alligator…Anyway if I can retire rich someday…stinky rich (but not super rich), I wouldn’t mind get a waterfront property in Florida with boat docks. Here in SD only that small community south of Coronado has boat-dock homes.

Participant[quote=flu]Well, I have a prediction…If prices fall another 15% in this area, I’m pretty confident all the Santee diehards will suddenly vanish from this board…[/quote]
Skyranch is just one of many housing communities in Santee and it’s rather unique, due to its location. So its pricing trend does not reflect the entire Santee.Recently several homes in Riverwalk were sold at roughly the same price that I bought it at. So I’m happy and am not concerned that price will fall 15%.
While some cities in the county had to cancel 4th of July firework due to budget, we enjoyed a spectacular show in our own back yard, less than 1/2 mile from the launch site.
Santee’s no La Jolla but I’m no rich folks either, so Santee’s just fine by me.

Those shop are contract for hire. So it depends on who the ultimate driver of the schedule is. And sorry, several of the other major players do not contract with the same company.HTC phones are built in taiwan. Samsung has their own facility as well.
Apple is a one big monopoly bully…period…[/quote]
So what you’re saying is that when Foxconn is making Apple’s products, workers are miserable and they jump. When making other people’s products, workers are happy and not jumping? Do you know for a fact that all suicides resulted from workers that were making exclusively Apple’s products at that time?HTC is an engineering/branding company, much like Apple. They contract manufacturing to OEM makers, including Foxconn, but not exclusively. This is a common practice in the CE world. Not too many companies put all their eggs into one basket by signing exclusive contract-manufacturing deal with just one OEM maker. Apple too, has OEM deals with other companies, so it’s unfair to these other OEM makers when you generalize by saying that Apple makes workers jump out of building.
By the way, while HTC is a Taiwanese company, its phone are made in both Taiwan and China, not exclusively Taiwan.
Samsung does have its own facilities worldwide but they too, have OEM deals.
Apple may be a bully but how is it a monopoly? Is it their fault that competitors’ products are just not as attractive, appealing and/or user-friendly? Do you not have a choice on mp3 player, desktop, laptop and smartphone?
