Yes. Pls check the date of this post. Almost a decade back. In those days PG used to allow nick changes, not anymore. @deepu Should be able to clarify!
Congratulations @Apurv . Have a happy married life. :-) On a different note, your wedding has inspired me to try and drive, at least a semblance of, change within my folks and what we have to endure during weddings :mg:

Any committed foodie will wax lyrical about the value of provenance - the integrity of the food, the care and craft behind creating it. How long, then, before this middle-class preoccupation with quality, traceability and plain goodness of the things we buy extends into technology? We suspend our...

Assembly lines, be they in China or elsewhere, demand the same kind of precision. And electronics factories have high security, since loss of a small memory card is usually enough to wipe out margins from multiple fully-assembled units.. The part that I don't like about such reports is how they talk of problems that are endemic to manufacturing and outsourcing, not to Apple. Being an industry leader Apple can do a lot of things, but can they, or anyone, change mindsets on how *much* profit is enough? Doubt it

Personally, being on & off these forums for these ten years has been a wonderful experience. The leap of faith that @pagalguy , @Apurv and @estranged_gnrs took a few years back is something that still moves me!
Building communities online in these days of social networks is probably not that big a challenge anymore. But to build a community of like-minded individuals who believe in sharing knowledge, and who, at the end of the day, are competing with one another, that to me is nothing short of awesomeness. And this, in a country where we increasingly are getting cynical of motives and sub-contexts of the spoken and unspoken word.
Hat tip to the wonderful folks at PG HQ. And to Allwin, rock on mate :mg:

For applicants with an engineering background, I have heard that top MBA Colleges in the US, like Harvard, Wharton, etc offer admit only to IIT Grads. To what extent is this true ?
Would someone from an NIT, with a very strong profile and 2-3 year work ex have a chance ?
Thanks
Last I heard @pagalguy has an MBA from Wharton and unless he sneaked one during night school, no degree from IIT ;-)
