My company's HP ProBooks were manufactured by Wistron (spin off of Acer), exactly like all ThinkPads used here.
Actually GDP per capita, current prices (2004): India: $608.4 USA: $39934.3 http://www.imf.org/external/pubs/ft/weo/2005/01/da ta/dbginim.cfm Of course Gross domestic product based on purchasing-power-parity (PPP) per capita is very close to the numbers you provided. But the laptop costs about 230 real dollars, not 230 purchasing-power-parity dollars.
Many developing regions don't have AM or FM stations -- they use shortwave because it goes farther on less power. Actually "shortwave" uses Amplitude Modulation (AM) too.
Those results are from PISA 2000. In the most recent PISA study (2003) the USA is behind Hungary and Germany. http://yro.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=145587&cid =12192243 Germany 503Hungary 490United States 483
