Hi Jim and all,

I dont want to rehash my pov again but thought that this article will be some serious food for thought for all readers of this thread:

Also, I really dont think "offshore work" == "lower quality" per se. There are many developers on this forum alone that are in so called "offshore" countries that are well beyond the skill level of many of us "westerners" - at least well beyond my skills <g> !
