HIGH TECH: William B. Filbert of Anaheim is a man with a mission--to open U.S. high-technology exports to the world before foreign knockoffs preempt the market (D12). . . . “I think that any commodity that you can buy in a U.S. retail store today should be decontrolled because you know darn well that they can be bought right out of stores in Budapest,” the project and design engineer says. Filbert is a member of a technical group in Washington that advises the U.S. Commerce Department on export controls of computer peripherals.
