Niall,
american software companies run their european businesses from ireland because they get prefered taxation there.
I am talking about ebay destroing our used market section @ fotoimpex (you expirineced this too) and the german politicians on top passing laws which put ebay in a prefered market situation by forcing dealers to give guarantee on used gears, financing all the shipping, beeing liable with all their capital for electrical hazard caused after 10 years of purchase by an 80 years old enlarger and all kinds of other fancy stuff.
So they are actively destroing their own dealer base in favour of a company which pays taxes in ireland.
That?s what i was talking about.
