    JVC Up For Sale

    Usually, American companies are on the auction block, only to be bought out by foreign companies and investors.

    But in a rare move in the tech world, it's the other way around.

    Matsushita- the owner of Panasonic and Victor Comapny of Japan (JVC) is selling the latter. Two American firms, one being Texas Pacific Group- the same folks who tried to buy PGE (Portland General Electric. They almost succeeded, but some ex-governor's shennannigans from 33 years ago kind of blew that apart, didn't it?...anyway...the other is Celeberus, a hedge fund).

    What will this mean for those of us who own electronics from JVC?
