Kingston sales reach $2 billion
 
Per the Inquirer http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=19986 Kingston Technology, located in Orange County CA. USA announced it's reached the $2 billion dollar sales mark. John Tu Kingston's co-founder told the Inquirer;
"The $2 billion figure represents a 38 per cent year on year increase...The increased sales are due to expansion into new memory segments and better global production."

Unfortunately for wanting investor's, Kinsgton is a privately owned company. Kingston products such as their Compact Flash line, and USB Flash Drives are among the products helping company profits.

Get ready, because I get scan the "trade journals" and the Register/Inquirer daily. Problem is, I wake at 4AM, the Inquirer ususally updates between 3AM and 9AM (I think) so while it's "first news for the USA" it's almost evening there right?
