Of course not.  There are far too many poor people, homeless people, elderly and people who live in jungles that do not have computers.\n\nCheck out this article from Intel.  They estimate only 10% of the world's population has a computer or access to one:\n\nhttp://www.intel.com/research/exploratory/papr/next10.htm

The exact same reason why their smarter than we are. It's their culture. For many Americans, more than enough, our culture is believing that we have to spend $2000 on the new Gucci purse to look cool, but being smart and understanding how to make life easier is simply the Eastern way of living. We're molded to believe that everything matters on the outside, they're molded viewing life as art and understanding. And, no, Japanese aren't taking the American ideas it's the exact opposite. The Americans are trying to invade every freaking country that they can to stay above everyone else. If America didn't invest in other countries, then trust me, we'd be a 3rd. world country too. (And the Europeans basically came up with everything, if you look at, although he was a horrible person, all the Hitler did for medicine and technology.)And dude below, this isn't an opinion. THIS IS THE TRUTH! This is based on statistical studies and cultural understanding. I have many Asian friends that can't possibly believe it when they see blonde Betti, for instance, asking questions that they've known since forever. It's their tradition. Being smart and creating technology, in which technology is simply any tool to make life easier, is how they live. What the hell are you talking about opinion? This is how it goes, and obviously you're too sad to admit. Who doesn't know that Westerns are nearly naturally, if they follow their traditions, that Easterns?

though neither were mexicans i think this pretty much sums it up. a friend of mines sister from greece was quit literally a rocket scientist, she inquired about citizenship, several days later she got it.\na friend from czech, with no special skill, tried to get citizenship and loads of paperwork later, several years later, much money later, three lawyers later, visa stay extensions that were "forgotten" to be stamped, papers sent to wrong addresses, not hearing back from departments in anything even remotely resembling even a slow timely fashion, she gave up.\nan IT friend from russia, made it through after three years, a marriage and 10,000-15,000 thousand dollars, and one lawyer later.

Mostly, people who are too smart for their own good.  They get bored and come up with viruses to entertain themselves.  Some create viruses to test companies' security systems.  A few, do it for financial gain (phishing)

I think that opportunities in computer technology in the US are still pretty great.  Pay in the US would obviously be more, but I imagine the cost of living would go up as well.  I think those who are skilled in your field can make a good living.

Unfortunately, I believe the answer goes to Bill Gates.  Not only is he super smart when it comes to computers, etc, he's also a savey business person.

None if you live in the US.  If you are India where all the computer jobs are thanks to Bill Gates, then go ahead you'll always be able to find a job there.

Because inexpensive talent in software engineers is being found all over the world including India and Russia and also developing third world nations we're likely to see an emergence of Software Companies growing to compete with the handful of dominant American companies.  We're also likely to see changes in the standards around development because right now it's still difficult to contract out development of software to these developing countries and still receive a product that is worthwhile to go to market with that doesn't create more problems than it solves.  I think it will get better though.

Most of the guys with computer science degrees that I know are working construction or as the Walmart technology sales clerks.  If you get a degree in computer science, you'd be competing with the 500,000 unemployed computer science grads that are out there right now looking for work.  Nearly all computer work is outsourced to India these days.

Not many jobs in the US for software people these days.  They are all being done in India now.
