This is a great, concise reply. I'm going back to school after 8 years in IT... for a CS degree from a 4 year college. I already have 4/5 of a BSME, and will only have to take the programming classes. Thanks.
Thank you for this. This is something that needs to be known... that our businesses and therefore our government is supporting such a country with business.
You're right, actually, and it's no big secret. Your tone suggests that you think that you're getting away with some clever scheme. But, what I'm detecting among US professors and students is a building resentment towards "American-based multinationals". I've actually spoken to a professor who told me, "Come to our school for computer science. At least you can understand our professors." This resentment, in turn, will be heard in our halls of state and then national government. That's right - no more Mr. Niceguy.
No, I haven't, but several of my close friends have. From what I've seen and heard, those "minted" Indian PhD's are tarnished somewhere between here and there. I think it has something to do with those who really want to become, and live to become, engineers (like those MIT cats), and those who become engineers for the quick buck. Much like those who became MCSE's during the mid-90's IT bubble.
Yes, GE et al are exporting their mundane work to India. And you mean to tell me that a country that aborts their female babies and is rife with Brahman corruption can really "get their act together"????
Really. They call themselves PhD's, but they are not the same as someone who has a PhD from Purdue, MIT, etc... Schools in third world countries do NOT educate with the same intensity as modern countries (US, UK, EU). Give me a Swiss/German/US PhD to an Indian/Pakistani "PhD" any day. 'Nuff said.
Let's be realistic about this - I had all of my workstations at 98/office97, and they SUCKED ASS. People rebooted at least twice per day. I bought Ghost, created a new image and blew all the machines out with Windows 2000 Pro, and my user requests are now almost nill. Win98 is NOT a good corporate desktop. EOL
I totally agree that this series was awesome. I especially liked the drum tracks just before engaging the Cylons. You can pick it apart comparing the two shows, but if you trolls just sat back and enjoyed the show, you'd see the brilliance of it.
Maybe they don't even HAVE aviation fuel for light planes. Maybe fuel for the snowmobiles and the occasional turbine-powered C-130 or Twin Otter that passes thru, but an RV-4?
I installed 3.4, did a xf86conf, got X just right, cd/usr/ports/x11/kde ; make && make install, the same with fluxbox, and have a suh-WEET desktop with fluxbox and all the KDE apps I need.
Dunno if they make good servers, but I bought 60 desktop boxes from them 3 years ago, and I'm still using them. I just put more memory in them and installed Win2k.
Segmentation as in granular as in chipping away at the big picture as in market creep is how Linux *IS* gaining ground. Even though the "Linux: perfect, Windows: otherwise perfect" analysis was off in a lot of respects, the term segmentation is right on.
The biggest coup for any productivity suite would be a nice document management application like iManage for DocsOpen. Law firms (like mine) MUST have such a thing with hundreds of thousands of documents.
I've heard the same thing from small software companies in L.A. They've tried shipping coding work overseas, and it was just crap. Not only was the software crap, but there was bad communication between the company and programmers, resulting in a useless product.

Good point. Thank you.
EXACTLY!!! People come HERE to be educated. I don't know of ANY US high school graduate who went to India for ANY education. Have a nice day.

Neither. Use FreeBSD 5.1rc1 with fluxbox. Everything compiles out of ports with little or no trouble.

THAT.... was priceless.

Then use Fluxbox!!!

neither. it brought tears to my eyes!
I'm sure my wife hates being woken up by my wailing as I take my morning shower before work.
