I sped read the post, but slowed down on a few parts. Funny, I remember most of it. The one thing that caught my eye, but isn't a surprise, was that they were eight years in before they realized the value of DFM. Ouch. DFM saves money and improves quality in volume manufacturing....always. Overall, a good summary for 15 years.
