I won't say that it's great - however its a step in the right direction. The OS does work smoothly - however you need atleast a decent configuration to be able to enjoy visual effects etc. All in all - a decent OS

Do i need to pay on Gross Profit or Net profit ? if yes then what is the multiple which i need to pay ? what are the key points which we will have to make a note ? Note: It is only client movement which will happen and we are not considering taking over of any assets or liabilities from the seller. Need Advise.

Pakistan has a much smaller manpower of 1,449,000 personell which is proportionally higher than India in terms of their population ratios.

I have always wondered who is the "adhinayak" and "bharat bhagya vidhata", whose praise we are singing. I thought might be Motherland India! Our current National Anthem "Jana Gana Mana" is sung throughout the country. Did you know the following about our national anthem, I didn't.

To honour their visit Pandit Motilal Nehru had the five stanzas included, which are in praise of the King and Queen. (And most of us think it is in the praise of our great motherland!! !) In the original Bengali verses only those provinces that were under British rule, i.e. Punjab, Sindh, Gujarat, Maratha etc. were mentioned. None of the princely states were recognised which are integral parts of India...
