How HARD can it be?

It’s called Hardware because it’s Hard.

Manufacturing in China is a challenge for your body and for your mind

(mèng), the Chinese character for “dream,” is made up of four

parts and is ideographic. The two upper parts, ( ) and ( ),

together resemble the shape of an eyebrow above the eye of a

person. The middle part ( ) is interpreted as either a bed or the

roof of a house; and the lower part is the character xī, which means

evening.
