OK, to make up for the loss of revenue the Danish economy suffers as a consequence of any arab/muslim boycott, I will try and seek out Danish products to buy. Uhm, what is it that Denmark exports?

LOL, silly me. B&O is not really my kinda equipment. Lego, well, three kids, we've been buying that for some time now. The rest is a bit of problem: do not recognise any of them.... Danes!

The companies mentioned in the picture is from Denmark and Norway, but i can describe some of the danish companies.
Grundfos - makes pumps.
Danfoss - Refrigeration & Air Conditioning, Heating & Water and Motion Controls.
Arla - dairy products (incl. Lurpak and Harmonie)
B&O - Hi-Fi and TV
Lego - well.......they make Lego
Lindberg - eyeglasses and eyewear
Ecco - Shoes
Dyrup - Paint
Other products you can buy (if they are exported to your country is): sugar (Danisco ), meat (Tulip ) and windmills (Vestas - though perhaps at the more expensive end of the scale. ). and of couse beer (Carlsberg & Tuborg).
I don't really know what else is exported to other countries, but if you come across anything you might think is danish, please ask and i'll see if i can answer.Laptops: ASUS G750JM: Intel Core i7 4700HQ, 8GB RAM (DDR3-1600), Nvidia GTX 860M, 1 x Samsung 840 EVO 250GB SSD, 1 x WD 750 GB HDD, 17,3" FHD Screen, Windows 8.1 64-bit.

I think if you look under Tulip bacon , you find that they also sell bacon.Originally posted by GNEPBacon? (Probably not such an issue in the middle east)
But you're right, they probably won't suffer greatly under the saudi boycot

B&O - Love them, they started selling them here some years ago, can't afford.
Ecco - Might buy a pair when my current shoes die
Lego - Damn expensive, but I loved it as a kid and my kids will have it too, when they arrive.
Lurpak - Wife loves it
Carlsberg and Tuborg are quite popular here

Really, I think it is great how they withstand pressure (even if economic boycott may not mean much). I wonder, wasn't there a neo-nazi radio station in DK as well? That would, e.g., read from the Danish translation of Mein Kampf every wednesday (?) from 14.00 to 16.00 hours?
I'll be on the lookout for Danish items and will let y'all know when I find some.Join MURCs Distributed Computing effort for Rosetta@Home and help fight Alzheimers, Cancer, Mad Cow disease and rising oil prices.

Actually, I dislike B&O. But there is this other Danosh HiFi brand that specialises in balanced equipment. Can't remember the name right now but I'll post it when I remember. They came in close second when I went for an Amp and choose the Dutch vM.

There was (perhaps there still is?) such a radio station. Though fortunately they don't (didn't) have many listeners or supporters.Originally posted by Umfriend
I for one, would never listen to such a radio station. I have no sympathies with neo-nazis or others on the far right.Laptops: ASUS G750JM: Intel Core i7 4700HQ, 8GB RAM (DDR3-1600), Nvidia GTX 860M, 1 x Samsung 840 EVO 250GB SSD, 1 x WD 750 GB HDD, 17,3" FHD Screen, Windows 8.1 64-bit.

Umf, you're evil. Do you think I can afford this stuff?
It's even worse as I really like high-end audio..

Sry TX. When I was looking for Amps (1998), the intgrated 2x60W was about 1600 guildiers, or 730 euros. I don't actually have prices of these, but I'm pretty sure they can compete on price with B&O. Can't find current prices though for either. Anyway, vM is better IMO and their cheapest amp runs 990 euros now but has, contrary to mine, a remote control...Join MURCs Distributed Computing effort for Rosetta@Home and help fight Alzheimers, Cancer, Mad Cow disease and rising oil prices.

I have a Yamaha HTR-5170 (?) which is the best I'll be able to afford unless someone dies and leaves me with a LARGE sum of money, or I win the lottery (which will be hard, since I never buy a ticket).
