Office, Pepsi, or Chai?

Another great article by Mike Magee at the INQ:

. . . this one contrasts the price of Vole software with common purchase items in India.

I enjoyed that very much, thanks Buck.

You're welcome James. I thought the price contrasts were interesting. Microsoft Office costs 35,000 rupees when "every Indian national we've bumped into in London faces bankruptcy here if she or he fancies a cup of tea (chai), which might set you back about four rupees." No wonder the Indian goverment has openly accepted Linux and told Gates to take a hike.
