Half of my A500´s were built in Philipines

Im not 100% sure about this, but i think in Brazil there was also a plant (or they just assemble the imported parts? Please some brazilians confirm this!)

My A1000 is made in Japan
My A1200 is from Philipines as well

OTHH, maybe some of you know, (and some not), but Argentina was the actually the only country who managed to get a licence from Commodore to built their own Commodore (not Amiga, but Commodore 64, 64c & 128). They wer branded Drean Commodore (Drean still exists today, one of the largest home appliances comapny here). The machines were, basically, refurbished/second hand motherboards imported from USA, and thanks to a special promotion plan, they didnt pay any taxes, and were built and assembled here (of course, they changed NTSC to PAL to adapt them to our TV system)

But thats another story...

Now, im not sure...but i think some of my Amigas is from Malaysia...could this be possible??

I will check when i get home
