It all comes down to cost. I have audited some Chinese factories that make some high quality boards and I have audited some factories that make what we demand these days - cheap crap. They are very capable of making goods to any price a westerner customer is willing to pay for. - Matti

very interesting , the green board with Arduino.org are the genuine item. When you enter arduino.org into a browser it refers to arduino.cc which is more confusing . The green board also has the Arduino logo on the power diodes which is not the case with the blue boards. I also use a genuine Arduino Mega board for another project and it is blue.
