This is especially true now with companies like Microsoft, Sun, Oracle and others setting up engineering outposts in India.
4 years ago you could get a PHD to work for you as an outsourced programmer... now those guys are working for one of the bigger companies with the salary and prestige that comes with having a position at one of them instead of slaving away at an outsourcing company.
I mean, think about it, wouldn't you?
That is also driving prices up.
So, don't expect the Top Gun quality guys for cheap if at all. Expect to pay about 60% of US prices. Once upon a time it was 25%. Those were the days.
