A company I did a lot of work with a couple of years ago did software design in Sydney, then each night they'd send their work to India where it would be coded. A consulting firm in LA would then proof/test the code, so that by the time the Sydney team came into work they would be ready to do the next step in the project. Fibre optics change everything...(not to mention the availability of skilled cheap workers in India).I worked as a temporary at a major U.S. corporation a couple of summers ago doing putting insurance policy info into a computer. Much of the work I was doing was to help get rid of a big backlog before the whole process was moved to India. We had members of the group from India that would be taking over the process on-site for training, and they were making about as much as I was as a temp, but they all had Masters degrees and considered the work to be very good.
I guess it all goes back to cost-of-living...
