Very likely. Also, Muntzing. ;-)

He sounds more like an accountant than an engineer.
No, he was a cheapskate. He started the race to the bottom of the
barrel in quality consumer electronics. Muntz TVs were a real bitch to
service. By the time the crap hit a shop, it had multiple, interactive
problems, and the owners were as cheap as Muntz so they wanted them
repaired for $2 or less. Very few shops would touch them, away from his
retail stores on the US West coast.
