Arthur states:

"... This is the ugly side of capitalism, where companies will do *anything*
to cut their expenses.  If Microsoft starts using underpaid programmers from
India, other software companies will follow suit, just to remain
competitive... "

Maybe that's why Microsoft is trying to eliminate the competition, so they
can set their prices as high as the deemed necessary to give them a better
'bottom line'

just my two cents, or would that now be six cents with inflation?
