Bosch made products
 
So, they make most of the components of my engine, several filters and interior parts...and now..............................MY COFFEE!?!?!?!?!

This is what I got for christmas....might as well have a three point star on it.

I have some very old 1.44MB floppy diskettes for computers made by em. Its like they are BASF. They dont make the things you buy, they make the things you buy better.

Well this is BASF:

BASF operates in a variety of markets. Its business is organized in the segments Chemicals, Plastics, Performance Products, Functional Solutions, Agricultural Solutions and Oil & Gas. The company occasionally advertises to the public using the tagline "At BASF, we don't make a lot of the products you buy. We make a lot of the products you buy better." Its slogan is "BASF The Chemical Company".

As for the disks, I would have to find them. The only info I found online was disk arrays.

They seem to do a good job on everything except sparkplugs. After all these years how did they manage to screw that up!

Robert Bosch GmbH was originally a mechanical products company that became an electro-mechanical products company and as electro-mechanical products became more widespread, so did their product line. I almost for them in 2003.
