Bob, Yep! Why not put your own mark on them and sell them for what they=20 are worth. There will be buyers. The thing is is that if they have=20 holdings in the US, the EU, and most of SA TI can take them to court and=20 sue them for big bucks damages for using the TI logo and TI has the=20 bucks to pull it off even if the Chinese government got involved. I=20 wonder if any of these ended up in our military supply chain. Thanks, rich!
