It's probably similar to why the Toyota Corolla always got a higher rating
than the Geo Prism, even though they were the same car built in the same
factory-- people percieve "Toyotas" as better than "Geos".
I suspect that in this case, it's people percieve "foreign" sets as being
better than "domestic" sets, but that's making the assumption that Lugnet
is more US-centric than it probably is. Another possibility is US users don't
like the 928 as much as their counterparts in the rest of the world like
their 497s...
