This is an interesting article- look to the paragraph at the end, it's all about money- the writer has just put a lot of lipstick on it.

What he doesn't realize is that he is helping educate the outsourcers and eventually they will probably replace his company when second generation engineers arrive. This is the way China plays the game. Look at their space program. In just three flights they have gotten to the level it took NASA about 20 to achieve. They will do the same with other technology...

Also notice that India is now "too expensive" at 75-85% of American wages....Indian outsourcing firms are actually moving into China as well-thereby screwing their own citizens.. Don't be surprised if the African market is tapped too. There are millions of Nigerians that could be re-trained from inheritance /lottery scammers into help desk representatives quite easily. They speak/write English (sort of) and have basic computer skills...
