Re: problem



What a crock of crapola all you MS-MVP's are talking about. And if you think
that most of those MS tech's from India talk better than most americans, you
are from a different planet !! The fact is that "Out Sourcing" for Microsoft,
Dell and the rest of them is strickly for MONEY !!!. I think I know as I have
a friend that IS in India helping some of the tech's and even HE has a hard
time getting them to understand and has a hard time understanding most of
them also. And the pay for the tech's there is so far under what they would
have to pay a good college grad tech from the US, it rediculous.

Don't get me wrong, I use MS products because even after all of their holes,
I have learned to skirt most of the problems by getting help from groups like
this. It just is very annoying that so many of the replies one gets from this
group for a particular problem is not even close.

Maybe if everyone had one of those "read line for line" books that the
tech's from India have you would be as far ahead as calling them. And who
ever thinks the tech's in india have good English haven't called one of them
lately.

"OUT SOURCING"---If you think that is good for the good old USA, you need to
move out of the country, as your head is in the hole in the sand !!

Redwagon.....
