  5. Re:Who uses Wordpress for Web development??? on Open Source Usability — Joomla! Vs. WordPress · · Score: 1

    That's all WP with customized themes and plugins.

  12. Re:iPod vs. Big Mac Index on The iPod International Currency Index · · Score: 1

    Sorry it's early in the morning (12:30) and we have a little bit of snow chaos here in Germany.

  13. iPod vs. Big Mac Index on The iPod International Currency Index · · Score: 5, Interesting

    The Big Mac Index is more suitable because it is a local index.

    Because for a Big Mac you look at the local costs and industries.
    (packaging, local labour cost, local agriculture (salad, meat...))

    For an iPod you only measure the chinise output (packaging, chinese labout cost, chinise raw materials ...) and the local reseller cost and worldwide shipping cost.

    22,000 is a good start.

    Especially these are students that will work later at companies. The Linux knowledge (using a Linux desktop != not server admin) is a plus!

    It's the same viral marketing that MS has used for ages: Let students work with our products later in their working life they want to use the same software tools they are familiar with.
