Intel-joke- A good one!!!!

There was a gentleman walking with two heavy suitcases in an airport

terminal. Someone approached and asked him what time it was. The

gentleman bends down to park the two heavy suitcases and stares at his

watch. But this was no ordinary watch! He touches a tiny button and his

administrative assistant's face appears.

He asks her, "Mary, what time is it?" Mary answers instantly and with a

smile!

The questioner is thoroughly impressed!!!

He asks, "What kind of a watch is that?"

"It's like a TV with two-way real-time communication," the gentleman

explains. He adds that the watch is the latest technology with Intel's

brand new 128-bit chip with processor speed of 10 Gigahertz.

The onlooker is now quite impressed and wanted to know if he could buy

this watch from the gentleman. They agree on a heavy price and the cash

was handed immediately. The gentleman takes his watch out and hands it

over and then walks away.

The new owner stares at the two heavy suitcases and shouts, "Sir, you

forgot your suitcases."

The gentleman stops, smiles, and replies, "No, they are yours now. They

are the modems you always need to carry for your new watch.

Government increases income tax exemption limit

Government increases income tax exemption limit 29 Feb 2008, 1302 hrs IST,INDIATIMES NEWS NETWORK http://budgetwithet.economictimes.indiatimes.com/ubarticleshow/2826104.cms

Finance Minister P Chidambaram spread cheer all around with Budget 2008-09, the last full-fledged Budget of the UPA government. A hike in the income-tax exemption limit was one of the key highlights of the Budget. The finance ministry raised the income-tax exemption limit from Rs 1,10,000 to Rs 1,50,000. Exemption limit for women was raised from Rs 1,45,000 to Rs 1,80,000 and exemption for senior citizens was raised from Rs 1,95,000 to Rs 2,25,000. Direct tax collections have been buoyant this fiscal year, registering a growth of over 40% to Rs 2,18,538 crore in the first 10 months. The slabs were introduced three years ago, but the Prime Minister’s Economic Advisory Council has suggested a change in the structure. For income upto Rs 1,50,000 tax liability will be nil, between Rs 1,50,000 and Rs 3,00,000 tax liability will be 10%, from 3 lakh to 5 lakh tax liability will be 20%, from 5 lakh upwards it will be 30%.

How to identify a Software engineer.. Don’t think that he/she will be fat or ….

1. He/She never bargains… No wonder things have become so costly!
2. When a cab/bus passes by and you see all the commuters in it are sleeping like they haven't slept for years…
3. Dilbert or Calvin is their favorite cartoon…

4. Words like issues, tracker, raising requests, buzz/ping, compile, delete [unlike erase or rub it off], onsite [n not abroad is what 'foreign land' is called] are the ones that would be used by 'default'…
5. Weekends are holy words… they are like a salvation one seeks for…
6. "Wazzzup", "Hows life?", are few obvious questions one will be greeted with which would be immediately followed by "how's work?"
7. Salaries, work etc are always better or in good shape in other companies than the one he/she is currently in…
8. They don't send or take things… they always forward them!
9. Drinking coffee is the most pleasurable thing they think they do in the entire day…
10. They seek a search engine in just almost everything they do… When I forget where I have kept my things at home the first thing that comes to my mind is "I wish there was a Google search for my room" J
11. Mondays are always blue…
12. All of them will have a dream to do something in life and that something would never be what they are doing right now…
