: This is garbage. More American-bashing. But -- don't worry; there is an AMERICAN book which answers this charge. It's called HANDLE TIME and its by LINCOLN PARK. Handle Time is becoming the bible for call center floor agents in the United States! It's funny as hell -- and it's got a real live, direct answer to that "35=10" B.S. One day, HANDLE TIME will be a movie, too!

: Hi Jason -- The "35=10" axiom (in the movie AND the book from the Indians) implies that the mind of a 35 year old American is equivalent to the mind of a 10 year old Indian child. The movie opens with this -- and the Indian book has this on pg. 55. If this is not American-bashing, I don't know what is. Anyway, HANDLE TIME answers this crap head-on. I hope every American telephone worker buys a copy of HANDLE TIME and enjoys it the way the Indians have enjoyed One Night@the Call Center.

: Thanks for re-posting this. When it comes to our team in Pune, it's really about working with the best team in the world regardless of location. It's worth it for me to get on a plane to visit them monthly because they are the best group of developers. We've even joked about my moving to Pune :)

The powers that be over at the eHome Product Management (that's "Marketing" for the uninitiated) are calling this the "Windows Media Center TV Pack". Calling it this would be fine if it added-on functionality to the RTM bits. But it doesn't, it completely replaces core WMC binaries. That means it's not an add-on, it is a ve (Read More)
