I would suggest the USA tax system and the relationship of academia to industry in the USA are the biggest factors as to why USA has been seen as so successful to date. Of course large USA corporates are not above plundering ideas from worldwide and relocating them to the USA. Not all ideas in computing come from California. But the big USA corporates love that the world sort of believes this. -- Russel. ============================================================================= Dr Russel Winder t: +44 20 7585 2200 voip: sip:[email protected] 41 Buckmaster Road m: +44 7770 465 077 xmpp: [email protected] London SW11 1EN, UK w: www.russel.org.uk skype: russel_winder
