    GSC: Does it stand for "Glory Smooth Company"?

    I am wondering if GSC stands for "Glory Smooth Company".

    (I also saw a few GSC capacitors on a 1998 mainboard - all of them were good, so therefore GSC was established for several years).
    My first choice in quality Japanese electrolytics is Nippon Chemi-Con, which has been in business since 1931... the quality of electronics is dependent on the quality of the electrolytics.

    I thought it was "Great Shitty CrapCo."

        sometimes they change their company name when they realise how silly the old style chinese names were. it is not clear if they are different companies. interesting to see the GSC site is down.

          Really, I thought it meant 'Generally Sh*tty Capacitors'. Now, I wonder what 'YEC' and 'OST' stand for...

          edit: forgot the 'electronic' part. Also I negle :P

          I'll probably be the only person going to SteamOS once it gets out of beta (ha ha.)

            One of my fave cultural oops company names was a P/S company from Korea called "Torch" (back in the 80s, probably not around anymore). "Sparkle" is interesting ... Delta is confusing in the US, it being used in other, better known industries. When I worked at Tandem Computers, it was easily confused with Tandon (FDD mfr in the 80s) and Tandy.
