Bose makes more than speakers...


I got a newspaper clipping which says that Bose makes more than speakers. They included a list (I don't know if it's everything Bose makes). I thought it was interesting, so I decided that I'd post it.

1. Military jet alternators
2. Nuclear generator control systems.
3. Space shuttle's audio system.
4. Noise-reducing crewman helmet for tank drivers.

They have also experimented with cold fusion.

Somewhat off topic, but I'm just curious. Do the owner/drivers of those $60,000+ German driving machines look down upon U.S. domestic cars with the same sneering intensity as audiophiles look down upon Bose products?
From that clipping, I now know why the Defense Dept has the need for a billion dollar budget. Think about it, Bose think tank gets put together to find out whose more gullible than the American public. Then 1 person reads aloud the article about the $600 dollar Defense Dept toilet seats a little while back, and marketing eyes light up as they realize they are set for life. Build and sell to the Defense Dept! Gotta tell you though, the noise canceling headphones work, just used a friend of mine's, incredible difference.
John, the funny ( or is it sad ??? ) thing about the scenario that you brought up is that it is probably all true !!! Sean

Hey Onhwy61,

Darn rite! I don't even own a euro car and I still look down on American made cars the way I look down at Bose.......John
I drive an 86' Jetta diesel and I still look down on American cars that way. (okay I'll stop talking about my diesel now guys, sorry)
