Craig,
You're doubting Jim's statement and I think you're right. See for example:
http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/businesstechnology/2001991575_outsource29.htmlBTW, my personal feeling about this type of outsourcing is that it can undermine a country's economic welfare. Companies should realize that high sales are impossible if they don't 'give' the customers money. Wages are the main way to give customers money.

>What makes you think that all 19,000 will be job replacements for people in North America?

>>Just heard a short news item that stated that MS was setting out to hire 19,000 more software developers in India, to complement the thousands already there!
>>
>>So there's 19,000 (more) people HERE (U.S. and Canada) who will be in the lineup for another McJob and spending all their hard-earned dough at WalMart!
>>
>>Gotta love that globalization and that PURE capitalism that has NO REGARD for social impact nor valuing original source of wealth nor 'loyalty' nor anything but that next buck saved, no matter how!

>>I suppose they gotta pay for those nice big new dividends somehow.
