Talking about the next BIG raging war between Microsoft and Google.

Dunno if it was posted before, i just got the article today.

MICROSOFT PLANS TO STOP SUPPORTING THE AMERICAN ECONOMY
BY OUTSOURCING MORE THAN 10,000 JOBS OVER 10 YEARS TO CHINA

http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/htm...tgoogle03.html

----- ---- --- -- - -
Microsoft is on track to outsource more than 1,000 jobs a year
to China, according to blistering evidence released yesterday
in Microsoft's increasingly nasty spat with Google over an
employee who jumped ship in July.

In a revelation that highlights the complexity of China
President Hu Jintao's visit to Seattle and Microsoft on Monday,
legal filings detailed claims of how Microsoft had offended the
Chinese government by not outsourcing as many jobs as promised
to Chinese technology vendors.

China is taking over the world.

JD · 09-20-2005, 11:21 AM

outsourcing that many jobs should be illegal

StuartD · 09-20-2005, 11:21 AM

I guess they know what they're doing, but that seems like a bad move to me.

Doctor Dre · 09-20-2005, 11:24 AM

Actually its a very smart move on their part. China is definitely the next big market, by outsourcing a good portion of their operation in China they are getting themselves entrenched in that new market, and with the kickbacks they will be getting from the Chinese government that will definitely put them into a good position to further their stronghold over a market that will eventually be bigger than the US.

Very smart move, as long as they can properly pull it off.

microsoft is already positioning itself and will spoil any plans of
Google to compete with them, just like they did with Netscape

We have a (semi-legit)channel of distribution into China for the porn videos we produce. All I can say is, "Shit! I don't care if I never sell any videos in the US."

They pay top dollar and don't even attempt to haggle. And there is sooo many damn Chineese that in volume alone you are laughing.

People think its their right as Americans to get goods at cheap prices and companies its their right to fuck employees. The question they dont think about you keep outsourcing jobs less and less descent paying jobs in this country who is going to buy your shit?

thats funny and sad at the same time...

Microsoft supports the American economy by buying $10 billion a quarter in US Government debt. That is nothing compared to the Chinese central bank. They buy $25-35 billion dollars a quarter. Who do you think is supplying the cash for the Iraq War?

Habib is an Arabic name, not an Indian name - it means Love.
