I think no matter where you're located, having a tech support rep who
speaks your language with an accent not too dissimilar to your own can be
a huge help. I've had tech support calls go bad because of unintelligible
accents when I was calling centers in India and in Ireland, but also in
the US when I found the last of the Clampett clan answering phones for an
ISP. (I've lived in Texas almost 16 years-- if you're so redneck that *I*
can't understand you, you need a job where all your communication is in
writing. Or pictures.)
