India to enjoy cut-price Windows

Let me see if I got this right: we ship our jobs overseas, and then we cut the price on our products in those overseas markets, while raising them here in the US!

Microsoft has confirmed that it is to start selling its cut-down, wallet-friendly, version of Windows in India, Indonesia, Malaysia and Russia. The cut-down version of Windows XP is already available in Thailand for about half the price of the full featured edition.
