strength of the electronics industry in Japan is the Japanese ability
to organize production and marketing rather than their achievements in
original research. The British are generally recognized as a far more
inventive collection of individuals, but never seem able to exploit what
they invent. There are many examples, from the TSR Z hovercraft, high
speed train and Sinclair scooter to the Triumph, BSA and Norton
Motorcycle which all prove this sad rule. The Japanese were able to
exploits their strengths in marketing and development many years ago,
and their success was at first either not understood in the West or was
dismissed as something which could have been produced only at their low
price. They were sold because they were cheap copies of other people's
ideas churned out of a workhouse which was dedicated to hard grind above
all else.
