Thank you for that riveting piece of information.  I'll sleep much better tonight knowing.  Come to think about it, I sleep well every night!

Some insights in to Dyson's contract assembly plant in Malaysia:-

IF you’ve had a hand in designing a vacuum cleaner owned by Queen Elizabeth II or David Beckham, it’s awfully difficult not to be swept along on a tide of emotion.
Yet, Arman Alias doesn’t seem to be too carried away by royalty or celebrity users. For him, it’s all part of a day’s work.
Being Dyson Malaysia’s design manager, it’s his job to ensure that every single vacuum cleaner meets the company’s rigorous testing criteria before it reaches users.

Hiya Moose --

My only problem is that after five minutes of sitting here with my eyes closed I still can't quite conjure up a picture of either Mr. Beckham or Her Royal Highness using it themselves.

Maybe if I try imagining them walking around wearing aprons or the Queen with the machine in one hand and her purse in the other . . .
