When you look in the parking lot of the "Honda" factory, you'll only see honda car. If you happen to look in US car factory (either GM or Ford) you'll see a lot of Japanese car as well. They'll always prefer Japanese products over other's. But since they represent such a large market. I think MS has to continue their effort to do well in there.

That's total BS. Have you ever worked for a american car company? I did some work for Ford once, and drove into the plant in a GM car and they flipped out. An associate of mine arrived in a Toyota; they told him to drive something else to the plant or we would lose the account. Americans can be just as proud as the kamikaze japs. Don't just assume things based on what you see on the road. If you work for that company, you have to drive their cars.
