some quotes:
"And so the giant Electronic Data Systems Corp., founded by Ross Perot
but no longer run by that noisy patriot, now recruits $1.25-an-hour tech
workers in India and sheds their $10-an-hour counterparts in EDS's home
state of Texas.
Wall Street brokerages including Morgan Stanley and J.P. Morgan Chase &
Co. are shifting from New York to India the ground-floor stock-research
jobs that traditionally lead to plum analyst assignments. Both India and
China are already well-known to recruiters from Intel Corp. and
Microsoft Corp.
Levi Strauss & Co. has just announced the closing of its remaining four
North American plants, including three in Canada, and will shift all
production to Asia and Latin America."
