Yea.........that makes me sick that company being eaten up.
I've been a PC fan for years.
No longer being in the woodworking business and it being a hobby now, it doesn't bother me as much now.
I've got enough of the older PC stuff to last the rest of my life +.
I've never bought any router with a speed controller. I could see the writing on the wall on that stuff.

Not sure where it is made, china is probably a safe bet, but there were enough bad reviews online regarding bearings and run out to make it sound like it wasn't a real good choice.
