Well, "managed from one location" doesn't necessary mean this location is also in Switzerland, does it? I also don't count 156 country links.

And as a quote (by an Austrian) I recently heard said: The outsourcing is directed eastwards. The Swiss hire Austrians, the Austrians hire Hungarians, the Hungarians hire Ukrainians and the it starts to get really cold.

the swiss department of foreign affairs has now been outsourced eastwards, to russia. makes sense.

it doesn't make sense that microsoft made another stupid mistake.

Those connections seem to be ending up in thin air as well.

This was probably put together by McMericans - and you know most of them aren't sure what;s outside their city, let alone what's outside the US!!

No, hold on. Most of them don't even know that the US isn't the only country in the world ;-) (Even seen The Truman Show?)

They end up in the air, since the Swiss offices recently have moved to Blimps.

News just in...
In order to tie is the new "MSCountryLocationStandardV1.1", Switzerland has been requested to move location 1000 miles east. Bill Gates was quoted stating that this would be easier then fixing the software. He also highlighted how this is an amazing opportunity for all Swiss people to integrate with a new environment and believes the Swiss people will be grateful by the time the bugs are ironed out. ;-)

Is this some kind of running gag in the US or is it a real consipracy? Most people probably know the CNN-Screenshot with Switzerland in the wrong spot ( http://www.lustiges.ch/download/CNN-Switzerland.jpg ). I am sure _they_ just want to make it look like a coincidence.
