    Computer recommendations

    I would recommend a new Macbook (released by Apple 3 days ago) for $999 + TAX at any Apple Store. They come wth 1 year International warranty. He can also buy AppleCare for $249+TAX which gives you 3 years of peace of mind. For an additional $75 you can buy a legit copy of Windows XP, partition...

    Shame on you Argentina

    You nailed it my friend. There was a very famous song (late 60's) from an Argentinian band. (Vox Dei) and, sometimes in the Chorus the words were:"...Todo tiene un final, todo termina..." Nothing is forever, not even a Government.

    Hate North Americans?

    This is the first time I hear a statement of that sort from a fellow Argentine. In almost 8 years in the US, I've been twice to Starbucks: I don't appreciate people showing off their Macbooks and iPods/iPhones just for the sake of it.

    Call centers

    My ex wife was making AR$3500 to AR$5000 a month + OSDE, 8 hours a day (Mo/Fri), in an American /Argentine owned Human Resources firm, as a recruiter. That was 2.5 years ago and she is in her mid 50's.

    Shame on you Argentina

    Funny thing you mentioned this: I've had recurrent nightmares while I lived in the US about the Chinese army taking over the US and going house by house arresting people. (thank God it was a nightmare)

    New Year's in Argentina

    Almost all of the restaurants have a special meal / entertainment planned for New Year's eve. In the burbs, prices drop big time. (u$s 50 per person or even less) You have to book your table in advance. Most of us (Argentines) hang out with family and / or friends in a house. New Year's eve...

    The worst pizza in the world?

    Tacky? Absolutely. In Argentinian I would say "GRASALAND" I was forced to go there several times for business. I made a comment on Emeril's restaurant because his name is all over the place in the US and I was invited by a client who claimed that the restaurant was one of the top 3 in town...

    The worst pizza in the world?

    To me, classiest has nothing to do with GOOD food; not always more expensive means -IMHO- better. I've been to Emerils Lagasse's Steakhouse in Las Vegas and found his beef absolutely tasteless. You should make a trip to Panero. (Zona Norte, Olivos)
