Thomson manufactures TVs and other consumer electronics for GE who sells them with the GE and RCA brands. GE is an American company , headquartered in Stamford Connecticut, with world-wide business. <br /> <br />This is similar to how the Ford Festiva and Aspire were manufactured by Kia of Korea and sold by Ford or the Chevy Tracker was made for GM by Suzuki. <br />[/quote] <br />Well then I was missinformed by a newspaper article I read about eight years ago that Thomson <br />Electric was baught by the French and two years later that same paper said Thomson Electeic baught GE and RCA and cosolidated them into one company but kept the respective names. <br />I Stand corrected, and apologize. Thank you for the info, and I'm not out to smeer anyone I <br />love everybody, I don't love some of the things we do but I have to be forgiving. <br />railwayray <br />Sagle Idaho <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />No your right- If you buy a GE DVD player- It sais GE Thomson, so does their website. <br /> <br />If you buy an RCA Walkman, it Says RCA Thompson, So does my Boom Box. <br /> <br />If you buy a Really High end stereo, it will Say GE RCA thomson, <br /> <br />Ge is the father compny that owns RCA, And Thomson is the multimedia Division of both of those companies.
