Well guys, I am in Manila myself.  I am on a short-term missions trip to the
Philippines, doing IT work for missions work.  ;)
(see the blog: http://mission.jimmyoliver.net/)

As annoying as the tec support is from out here, I have to cut them a little
slack.  The Philippines is bordering on teetering into economical chaos, and the
only thing keeping it afloat is that so many Philippinos are sending money back
home from jobs they have around the world.  If they do build a good IT
infrastructure, most of the Philippinos will end up switching to Linux.  ;)  It
is just their collective personality.  If you don't believe me, do some research
on the Jeepney, the country's national vehicle. But I will leave that as an
exercise for you...
