Thanks! Note that software prices aren't a real problem in Vietnam, since 
the concept of "intellectual property" hasn't been translated there yet... 
What is called piracy elsewhere (of nearly everything from sunglasses to oil 
paintings) is a normal state of things here. This may change a bit when VN 
enters WTO but for now hardware prices, lack of training and power cuts are 
more likely limitations.
