KT, I've read in EE Times that the net cost of setting up shop in India is 25% -- that would likely include the 90% lower pay but offset by an infrastructure and overhead to support the extra workers & training, timezone differential, and code management, etc. Still, 75% off is a bargain. Scotland and Russia are big in the computer coding front, too. Edit: part of the 25% net is the result of lower productivity so more Indian engineers to do the same job. Not sure why the productivity is lower, however.
