On close inspection it appears that it might be a Hitachi or Toshiba, but I
am just guessing.  We can start a whole discussion just about who make who's
CD player.

For instance, can anybody identify the *real* manufacturer of the following
players?  I realize that some may be rather well know, but see if you can
list the differences (if there are any) from the base model along with the
manufacturer.

Who make:

Radio Shack      (From above question)

Video Concepts   (Video store chain that slapped their logo on a CD player)

General Electric (Has anybody else seen this one, it's cheap - $229.)

Misson           (Who make the base unit?)

Meridian	 (Who make the base unit?)

Magnavox	 (This one's easy)

Sylvania         (Just as easy)

Siemens		 (The company that I work for put out a CD player in
		  Europe, it's no longer made. Any guesses?)

Can someone think of any others that fall into this catagory?
