The infy deal is not going to work i think. This is what I got from the manager there:

I would be thrilled to have you in my team. I will answer your one-liners (in the end of your mails) once you are in my team. Till then, let "good manners" prevail. I will let you keep your OS as linux only if you prove me that you know what the OS is doing at any given point in time.

*shudder* is all I do. Man, good this happened before I landed there... The one liners this mail is talking about are my fortune signatures (which are generated randomly). Here are they:

1. "He flung himself on his horse and rode madly off in all directions."
2. Over the shoulder supervision is more a need of the manager than the programming task.

So after that I haven't heard from them. Good thing too.
