[edit] Orion (company)
I don't think that Orion is a Hungarian company by origin. On their German Webpage it's written that Orion was originally founded in 1958 by Shigemasa Otake in Kobe, Japan.
Could you please check this?
Thanks a lot,

- That's really strange, because I've also found this: orionelec.com

Okay. I see that we already have both companies on the list. But why do they have the same logo and which one is the "real" Orion, because they both seem to produce TVs with the same logo, for example?--El Burro 11:09, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
I like this set-up. The mythical figures and the constellations really are linked and should be on the same pages. --mav
Well, for something like Orion, I would agree with you. Hercules and Perseus, not necessarily. Andromeda for me would be a borderline case. - Montréalais
I disagree, the constellation Orion and the mythological Orion are completely different things connected by only a single tenuous association. Throughout the rest of Wikipedia, astronomical objects which share a name with a mythological entity have separate articles; I would expect the same here. Indeed, the mythology portion of this article is already located under a different header in this current article, not really merged so much as appended to it. Bryan
[edit] Philip Glass - Orion
I edited the entry for Orion by Philip Glass because it was in 2004 not 1994. Perhaps this was an act of vandalism? Regardless, it's fixed now and I cited the source. I've never cited sources on disambiguation pages before, but I didn't see anything at Wikipedia:Manual of Style (disambiguation pages) specifically prohibiting the practice.
