Darrel brings up some good points regarding the offshoring of IT functions. Everyone's aware of the top tier system and software companies moving R&D and manufacturing overseas. I think some folks here would be very surprised, however, in this day of concerns over port security that, the nation's top financial institutions and manufacturing concerns have also shipped their mainframe and network surveillance and change control functions to Bombay and other South Asian cities, as well.
Remote and vitual management functions were perfected here, but they can be, and in actuality they are now being executed anywhere in the world where there is a suitable communications connection. Indian companies, btw, now constitute the single largest block of owners of submarine fiber optic cables in the world. -- Frank A.
