To combat this, Infosys Technologies has disabled USB drives on PCs to limit the ability of workers to take data out of the office.

Having seen the whole sorry state of affairs we have here in Europe for the moment surrounding software patents (Brit in Beglium), I salute a fellow geek who is not ashamed to show his true colours. Its about time some of the more apathetic geeks STARTED VOICING THEIR OPINIONS

Guys, hows about it? You know how important the internet is to your economy, right? Just one or two little *protests*.....

Mate thats cool and we need more people with your perspective that have seen the outside world, taken on board the differences, but still find the grass greener on the side you choose.
Problems arise when the arguements about exactly what "shade of green the grass is" on both sides amounts to speculation.
I am a brit who has now lived abroad in Belgium for 6 years. It is my second time here in Belgium - first time I hated it. I went back to the UK and realised that, actually, it wasn't Belgium so much as it was that I discovered that pretty much all countries suck, just in different ways.
For me, England sucks (not totally, but comparatively too many ways for me) and I like the Belgium lifestyle more.
Happy to hear you discovered that your home lifestyle was your zen:-)
Cheers,

P.S. Over here in Europe almost all of us love the Americans (many immigrants here have anti American feelings, its to do with the scapegoat syndrome) - the issue a lot of us have is with the US foreign policy. Please drop Bush and get rid of religion in the White House - be the America your founding fathers promised to you!

Probably the biggest benefit is that lack of adverts - it also helps in keeping the other channels amount of ADs down too.
The best programmes (shows) that come out of the BBC have to be their natural history and documentaries - some of the National Geographic stuff is in this calibre I must admit. I don't hold the Beeb up on a pedestal though, but consider the standard to be perhaps a little higher.-)

You know the BBC is not a standard US 'for-profit' corporate - right?
The BBC is financed by a TV licence paid by households. It does not have to serve the interests of advertisers, or produce a return for shareholders. This means it can concentrate on providing high quality programmes and services for everyone, many of which would not otherwise be supported by subscription or advertising.

As the other anonymous coward pointed out, it seems this is common point of contention. I was educated to believe it was unnecessary - in England .-)
Maybe because I'm English?

Turns out, its four of them all together from the PCB fab I guess.
Sigh must I explain everything. Let he who is without sin cast the first stone.

Hey Aardvark,
Been a while since I've seen some comments by you. Just thought I'd say a big FUCK YOU since we are foe/freak.

In england that little piece of skin is called 'No mans land'.
So called after the region in-between the two sides in a land army war, where they would play football together on christmas day.
I'm not really sure what the football bit brings to the analogy though.
Hey I fucking resent that - I am retarded.
In fact, I run the local group, we get together on saturdays. And _last_ saturday, we voted not to let 'k00110' join.
So, please. Just call him a dick face.
Dude, you are clearly new here.
Stop by at the entrance, pick our free magazine 'Razzle', and just format that baby. Linux man. Then you can join us.
Hahaha I just pissed my pants.
Happy New Year Microsoft!
