In the end, who cares about your opinion? Not IBM, not CISCO, not BP, not INTEL, not SUN, not YAHOO, not HP, not ACCENTURE, and about a thousand other business -- you see, they all "outsource".

Are you sure you saw the first article about what was at stake in the infosys case. The ability of california to tax infosys on the *entire* product produced, offshore and onshore - the services equivalent of a tariff basically- would have ramifications for all of these companies. Its not like california only cares about infosys, the point is that infosys is producing a product offshore and CA gets taxes on two "project managers" who bring the goods in the state for use. Same would apply to Cisco/Sun etc. California is probably testing the waters with infosys because there is no price to pay if infosys gets angry and leaves the state.
