Here's a snippet:

"Hewlett-Packard Co., its hands full with both its merger with Compaq Computer Corp. and the stubbornly slow economy, is one such company. It filed 144 H1-B visa request documents in 2000, 105 last year and none to date this year."

I know some of our Nepali friends in the US are trying to find a job and are having a hard time getting an H1-B sponsorship. With such bleak economic outlook, perhaps this is the time to go back to school - get an MBA, for instance - because the opportunity cost is very low at this time.
