		<description>A quick note of caution: Today Satyam, the IT consulting firm in India, announced an alleged accounting scandal. Many of India&#039;s IT consulting firms are watching their stocks fall as a result. Unfortunately, they are &quot;guilty by association&quot; and suffering from the negative Satyam news. 

But Satyam&#039;s fall from grace should NOT be confused with the overall IT market in India. I&#039;ve covered Satyam for several years as a journalist, and our company (&lt;a href=&quot;http://ninelivesmediainc.com&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Nine Lives Medai Inc.&lt;/a&gt;, MSPmentor&#039;s parent) has vocally stated there&#039;s &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.thevarguy.com/2009/01/07/satyam-told-you-so/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;something not quite right at Satyam&lt;/a&gt;.

So, we&#039;re on the record saying people should be skeptical of Satyam. But we&#039;re also on the record stating that India&#039;s IT opportunities -- including managed services -- remain strong. And you can bet a lot of Satyam&#039;s IT consulting business across the globe will now be re-bid to other consulting firms.

Best wishes as you seek your share of Satyam&#039;s pie.</description>
